|
Reaction(IUBMB) |
2-dehydro-L-gulonate + NADP+ = 2,5-didehydro-D-gluconate + NADPH + H+ [RN: R08878]
|
Reaction(KEGG) |
|
Substrate |

Comment |
The enzyme is involved in ketogluconate metabolism, and catalyses the reaction in vivo in the reverse direction to that shown [1]. It is used in the commercial microbial production of ascorbate. cf. EC 1.1.1.274, 2,5-didehydrogluconate reductase (2-dehydro-D-gluconate-forming).
