Mannitol dehydrogenase

In enzymology, mannitol dehydrogenase () is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

The two substrates of this enzyme are D-mannitol and oxidised nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD<sup>+</sup>). Its products are D-mannose, reduced NADH and a proton.

This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the CH-OH group of donor with NAD<sup>+</sup> or NADP<sup>+</sup> as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is mannitol:NAD<sup>+</sup> 1-oxidoreductase. Other names in common use include MTD, and NAD<sup>+</sup>-dependent mannitol dehydrogenase.
