The two substrates of this enzyme are 2-deoxy-D-gluconic acid and oxidised nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD⁺). Its products are 3-dehydro-2-deoxy-D-gluconic acid, 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 2-deoxy-D-gluconate:NAD⁺ 3-oxidoreductase. This enzyme is also called 2-deoxygluconate dehydrogenase. This enzyme participates in pentose and glucuronate interconversions.
