Flavin reductase (NADH) (EC 1.5.1.36, NADH-dependent flavin reductase, flavin:NADH oxidoreductase) is an enzyme with systematic name flavin:NAD+ oxidoreductase.[1] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

reduced flavin + NAD+ flavin + NADH + H+

The Escherichia coli enzyme reduces free flavins by NADH.
