2-hydroxy-3-oxosuccinic acid
 

The substrates of this enzyme are D-glyceric acid, oxidised nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+), and carbon dioxide. Its products are 2-hydroxy-3-oxosuccinic acid, reduced NADH, and a proton. The enzyme can use the alternative cofactor, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate.[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 D-glycerate:NAD(P)+ oxidoreductase (carboxylating). This enzyme participates in glyoxylate and dicarboxylate metabolism.
