This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the CH-OH group of donor with NAD+ or NADP+ as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is (15S)-15-hydroxy-5,8,11-cis-13-trans-icosatetraenoate:NAD(P)+ 15-oxidoreductase. This enzyme is also called 15-hydroxyeicosatetraenoate dehydrogenase. This enzyme participates in arachidonic acid metabolism.
