In enzymology, serine 2-dehydrogenase () is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
The three substrates of this enzyme are serine, water, and oxidised nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+). Its products are hydroxypyruvic acid, reduced NADH, ammonia, and a proton.
This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the CH-NH2 group of donor with NAD+ or NADP+ as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is L-serine:NAD+ 2-oxidoreductase (deaminating). Other names in common use include L-serine:NAD+ oxidoreductase (deaminating), and serine dehydrogenase.
