| Accepted name: |
tauropine dehydrogenase |
| Reaction: |
tauropine + NAD+ + H2O = taurine + pyruvate + NADH + H+ |
| Glossary: |
tauropine = N2-(D-1-carboxyethyl)-2-aminoethanesulfonate |
| Other name(s): |
2-N-(D-1-carboxyethyl)taurine:NAD+ oxidoreductase (taurine-forming) |
| Systematic name: |
N2-(D-1-carboxyethyl)taurine:NAD+ oxidoreductase (taurine-forming) |
| Comments: |
In the reverse reaction, alanine can act instead of taurine, but more slowly, and 2-oxobutanoate and 2-oxopentanoate can act instead of pyruvate. |
