In enzymology, a 3-hydroxybenzyl-alcohol dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.97) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

3-hydroxybenzyl alcohol + NADP {\displaystyle \rightleftharpoons } 3-hydroxybenzaldehyde + NADPH + H

Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are 3-hydroxybenzyl alcohol and NADP, whereas its 3 products are 3-hydroxybenzaldehyde, NADPH, and H.

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 3-hydroxybenzyl-alcohol:NADP oxidoreductase. Other names in common use include m-hydroxybenzyl alcohol dehydrogenase, m-hydroxybenzyl alcohol (NADP) dehydrogenase, and m-hydroxybenzylalcohol dehydrogenase. This enzyme participates in toluene and xylene degradation.
