The two substrates of this enzyme are 6-hydroxyhexanoic acid and oxidised nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+). Its products are 6-oxohexanoic acid, reduced NADH, and a proton.[1][2][3]

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 6-hydroxyhexanoate:NAD+ oxidoreductase. This enzyme participates in caprolactam degradation.
