Galactonolactone dehydrogenase

FieldValue
NameL-galactonolactone dehydrogenase
EC_number1.3.2.3
CAS_number2603847

L-galactonolactone dehydrogenase (, galactonolactone dehydrogenase, L-galactono-gamma-lactone dehydrogenase, L-galactono-gamma-lactone:ferricytochrome-c oxidoreductase, GLDHase, GLDase) is an enzyme with systematic name L-galactono-1,4-lactone:ferricytochrome-c oxidoreductase. This enzyme catalyses two chemical reactions

The first stage is the final step in the biosynthesis of vitamin C in plants and other photosynthetic eukaryotes.
