There are several forms of malate dehydrogenases that differ by their use of substrate and cofactors. This NAD+-dependent enzyme forms oxaloacetate and unlike EC 1.1.1.38, malate dehydrogenase (oxaloacetate-decarboxylating), is unable to convert it to pyruvate. Also oxidizes some other 2-hydroxydicarboxylic acids. cf. EC 1.1.1.82, malate dehydrogenase (NADP+); EC 1.1.1.299, malate dehydrogenase [NAD(P)+]; and EC 1.1.5.4, malate dehydrogenase (quinone).

(S)-malate:NAD+ oxidoreductase

malate dehydrogenase is an oligomeric enzyme that catalyzes the reversible oxidation of malate to oxaloacetate in the presence of NAD+, MDH is an essential metabolic enzyme in the citric acid cycle

the relative activity for NAD+ to that of NADP+ is about 43.9%. pro-R stereospecificity for hydrogen transfer at the C4 position of the nicotinamide moiety of the coenzyme
