Alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) is an enzyme that catalyzes the oxidation of primary and secondary alcohols to their corresponding aldehydes and ketones through a mechanism that involves the removal of hydrogen. In the oxidation mechanism, ADH is momentarily associated with nicontinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+), which functions as a cosubstrate. The mechanism of the reaction is below: CH3CH2OH + NAD+ → CH3COH (acetaldehyde) + NADH + H+ (Note: The reaction is actually reversible although the arrow does not show it)
