- hexadecanal + CoA + NAD+ hexadecanoyl-CoA + NADH + H+
The 3 substrates of this enzyme are hexadecanal, CoA, and NAD+, whereas its 3 products are hexadecanoyl-CoA, NADH, and H+.
This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the aldehyde or oxo group of donor with NAD+ or NADP+ as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is hexadecanal:NAD+ oxidoreductase (CoA-acylating). This enzyme is also called fatty acyl-CoA reductase.
