Biochemical properties

The short-chain dehydrogenase/reductase family (SDR) is a very large family of enzymes, most of which are known to be NAD or NADP-dependent oxidoreductases [1].

Allergens from this family

The fungal allergens Alt a 8 from Alternaria alternata and Cla h 8 from Cladosporium herbarum are mannitol dehydrogenases [2].
