Asparagusate reductase (EC 1.8.1.11) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

 
 
H+
 
H+
 
 
3-mercapto-2-mercaptomethylpropanoic acid
 

The three substrates of this enzyme are asparagusic acid, reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH), and a proton. Its products are 3-mercapto-2-mercaptomethylpropanoic acid and oxidised NAD+.[1][2][3]

This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on a sulfur group of donors with NAD+ or NADP+ as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is 3-mercapto-2-mercaptomethylpropanoate:NAD+ oxidoreductase. Other names in common use include asparagusate dehydrogenase, asparagusic dehydrogenase, asparagusate reductase (NADH2), and NADH2:asparagusate oxidoreductase.
