The FAD-dependent oxidoreductase family refers to a group of enzymes that utilize flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) as a cofactor to catalyze oxidation-reduction (redox) reactions. These enzymes are categorized within the larger class of oxidoreductases, which facilitate the transfer of electrons from one molecule (the reductant) to another (the oxidant).
