| Accepted name: |
phenylalanine dehydrogenase |
| Reaction: |
L-phenylalanine + H2O + NAD+ = phenylpyruvate + NH3 + NADH + H+ |
| Other name(s): |
L-phenylalanine dehydrogenase; PHD |
| Systematic name: |
L-phenylalanine:NAD+ oxidoreductase (deaminating) |
| Comments: |
The enzymes from Bacillus badius and Sporosarcina ureae are highly specific for L-phenylalanine; that from Bacillus sphaericus also acts on L-tyrosine. |
