| Description | This entry identifies L-galactono-gamma-lactone dehydrogenase . This enzyme performs the final step in ascorbic acid biosynthesis in higher plants. The protein is homologous to ascorbic acid biosynthesis enzymes of other species: L-gulono-gamma-lactone oxidase in rat and L-galactono-gamma-lactone oxidase in yeast. All three covalently bind the cofactor FAD. | Name | Galactonolactone dehydrogenase |
| Short Name | GL_DH | Type | Family |
