Clostridium difficile produces an NAD-specific glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH), which converts l-glutamate into alpha-ketoglutarate through an irreversible reaction. The enzyme GDH is detected in the stool samples of patients with C. difficile-associated disease and serves as one of the diagnostic tools to detect C. difficile infection (CDI). [PMID: 24145018]
