KEGG   ENZYME: 1.3.3.12
Entry
EC 1.3.3.12                 Enzyme                                 
Name
L-galactonolactone oxidase;
L-galactono-1,4-lactone oxidase
Class
Oxidoreductases;
Acting on the CH-CH group of donors;
With oxygen as acceptor
Sysname
L-galactono-1,4-lactone:oxygen 3-oxidoreductase
Reaction(IUBMB)
L-galactono-1,4-lactone + O2 = L-ascorbate + H2O2 [RN:R00643]
Reaction(KEGG)
R00643
Substrate
L-galactono-1,4-lactone [CPD:C01115];
O2 [CPD:C00007]
Product
L-ascorbate [CPD:C00072];
H2O2 [CPD:C00027]
Comment
A flavoprotein. Acts on the 1,4-lactones of L-galactonic, D-altronic, L-fuconic, D-arabinic and D-threonic acids; not identical with EC 1.1.3.8 L-gulonolactone oxidase. (cf. EC 1.3.2.3 galactonolactone dehydrogenase).
History
