(S)-dihydroorotate NAD orotate NADH H

Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are (S)-dihydroorotate and NAD , whereas its 3 products are orotate, NADH, and H .

This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the CH-CH group of donor with NAD or NADP as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is (S)-dihydroorotate:NAD oxidoreductase. This enzyme is also called orotate reductase (NADH). This enzyme participates in pyrimidine metabolism. It has 2 cofactors: FAD, and FMN.
