In enzymology, (S)-carnitine 3-dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.254) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

 
 
 
H+
 
H+
 
 

The two substrates of this enzyme are (S)-carnitine and oxidised nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+). Its products are 3-dehydrocarnitine, reduced NADH, and a proton.[1][2]

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 (S)-carnitine:NAD+ oxidoreductase.
