Nitrate reductase (NADH) (EC 1.7.1.1, assimilatory nitrate reductase, NADH-nitrate reductase, NADH-dependent nitrate reductase, assimilatory NADH: nitrate reductase, nitrate reductase (NADH₂), NADH₂:nitrate oxidoreductase) is an enzyme with systematic name nitrite:NAD⁺ oxidoreductase. This enzyme catalyzes the following chemical reaction

nitrite + NAD⁺ + H₂O ⇌ nitrate + NADH + H⁺
