In enzymology, an allyl-alcohol dehydrogenase () is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
The two substrates of this enzyme are allyl alcohol and oxidsed nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP+). Its products are acrolein, reduced NADPH, and a proton.
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 allyl-alcohol:NADP+ oxidoreductase.
