EC 1.1.1.347     
Accepted name: geraniol dehydrogenase (NAD+)
Reaction: geraniol + NAD+ = geranial + NADH + H+
Other name(s): GeDH; geoA (gene name)
Systematic name: geraniol:NAD+ oxidoreductase
Comments: The enzyme from the bacterium Castellaniella defragrans is most active in vitro with perillyl alcohol [2]. The enzyme from the prune mite Carpoglyphus lactis also acts (more slowly) on farnesol but not on nerol [1].
