The alcohol dehydrogenase catalyzed aldehyde-NADH reaction show kinetics consistent with a random-order mechanism, and the rate-limiting step is the dissociation of the product enzyme-NAD+ complex. <ref>PMID: 4352908</ref> Alcohol dehydrogenase is more effective for smaller alcohol substrates, and it becomes less effective as substrate size increases. It is also more effective for primary than secondary alcohols.<ref>PMID: 4352908</ref> | The alcohol dehydrogenase catalyzed aldehyde-NADH reaction show kinetics consistent with a random-order mechanism, and the rate-limiting step is the dissociation of the product enzyme-NAD+ complex. <ref>PMID: 4352908</ref> Alcohol dehydrogenase is more effective for smaller alcohol substrates, and it becomes less effective as substrate size increases.
