DE   N-acetylhexosamine 1-dehydrogenase.
CA   H2O + N-acetyl-alpha-D-glucosamine + NAD(+) = 2 H(+) + N-acetyl-D-
CA   glucosaminate + NADH.
CC   -!- Also acts on N-acetylgalactosamine and, more slowly,
CC       on N-acetylmannosamine.
CC   -!- Anomeric specificity was tested with N-acetyl-D-glucosamine, and it
CC       was shown that the enzyme is specific for the alpha anomer.
