Structural highlights
FunctionADH_MORSE Psychrophilic alcohol dehydrogenase that exhibits a wide range of substrate specificity, oxidizing mainly primary and secondary aliphatic alcohols, utilizing NAD(+) as a cosubstrate. In vitro, shows highest reaction rates for ethanol as a substrate and gradually decreases its reaction rates as the length and branching of the carbon chain of the alcohol substrates increase. To a lesser extent, is also able to reduce aldehydes and ketones. Do not catalyze the further oxidation of aldehydes to carboxylic acids. Cannot use NADP(+) instead of NAD(+).[1] See AlsoReferences
