Lysine 6-dehydrogenase (EC 1.4.1.18, L-lysine epsilon-dehydrogenase, L-lysine 6-dehydrogenase, LysDH) is an enzyme with systematic name L-lysine:NAD+ 6-oxidoreductase (deaminating).[1][2][3][4] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

L-lysine + NAD+ [math]\displaystyle{ \rightleftharpoons }[/math] (S)-2,3,4,5-tetrahydropyridine-2-carboxylate + NADH + H+ + NH3 (overall reaction)
(1a) L-lysine + NAD+ + H2O [math]\displaystyle{ \rightleftharpoons }[/math] (S)-2-amino-6-oxohexanoate + NADH + H+ + NH3
(1b) (S)-2-amino-6-oxohexanoate [math]\displaystyle{ \rightleftharpoons }[/math] (S)-2,3,4,5-tetrahydropyridine-2-carboxylate + H2O (spontaneous)

The enzyme is highly specific for L-lysine as substrate, although S-(2-aminoethyl)-L-cysteine can act as a substrate, but more slowly.
