| Reaction(IUBMB) |
2 L-ascorbate + H2O2 + 2 H+ = L-ascorbate + L-dehydroascorbate + 2 H2O (overall reaction) [RN: R00644];
(1a) 2 L-ascorbate + H2O2 + 2 H+ = 2 monodehydroascorbate + 2 H2O [RN: R09540];
(1b) 2 monodehydroascorbate = L-ascorbate + L-dehydroascorbate (spontaneous) [RN: R03186]

| Comment |
A heme protein. Oxidizes ascorbate and low molecular weight aromatic substrates. The monodehydroascorbate radical produced is either directly reduced back to ascorbate by EC 1.6.5.4 [monodehydroascorbate reductase (NADH)] or undergoes non-enzymatic disproportionation to ascorbate and dehydroascorbate.
