NameAcetoin dehydrogenase
EC_number2.3.1.190

Acetoin dehydrogenase (, acetoin dehydrogenase complex, acetoin dehydrogenase enzyme system, AoDH ES) is an enzyme with systematic name acetyl-CoA:acetoin O-acetyltransferase. This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

: acetoin + CoA + NAD+ \rightleftharpoons acetaldehyde + acetyl-CoA + NADH + H+

This enzyme requires thiamine diphosphate.
