Oxidative deamination of branched-chain amino acids. Oxidizes L-valine and L-alpha-aminobutyric acid efficiently, and L-isoleucine and L-leucine less efficiently. Does not act on D-valine. The catabolism of L-valine is the major source of fatty acid precursors for macrolide biosynthesis and a vital source of antibiotic precursors. Uses NAD; no activity was found with NADP.

Belongs to the Glu/Leu/Phe/Val dehydrogenases family.
