The 3 substrates of this enzyme are 4-formylbenzenesulfonate, NAD⁺, and H₂O, whereas its 3 products are 4-sulfobenzoate, NADH, and H⁺.

This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the aldehyde or oxo group of donor with NAD+ or NADP+ as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is 4-formylbenzenesulfonate:NAD+ oxidoreductase. This enzyme participates in 2,4-dichlorobenzoate degradation.
