In enzymology, a leucine dehydrogenase (EC 1.4.1.9) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction:L-leucine + H2O + NAD+ 4-methyl-2-oxopentanoate + NH3 + NADH + H+. The 3 substrates of this enzyme are L-leucine, H2O, and NAD+, whereas its 4 products are 4-methyl-2-oxopentanoate, NH3, NADH, and H+. This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the CH-NH2 group of donors with NAD+ or NADP+ as acceptor. This enzyme participates in valine, leucine and isoleucine degradation and valine, leucine and isoleucine biosynthesis.http://www.creative-enzymes.com/product/Native-Bacillus-Cereus-LLeucine-Dehydrogenase_1263.html
