(S)-2-hydroxy-fatty-acid dehydrogenase

In enzymology, a (S)-2-hydroxy-fatty-acid dehydrogenase () is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are (S)-2-hydroxystearate and NAD, whereas its 3 products are 2-oxostearate, NADH, and H.
This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the CH-OH group of donor with NAD or NADP as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is (S)-2-hydroxystearate:NAD oxidoreductase. Other names in common use include dehydrogenase, L-2-hydroxy fatty acid, L-2-hydroxy fatty acid dehydrogenase, and 2-hydroxy fatty acid oxidase.
