UniProt Comments
Involved in the biosynthesis of ascorbic acid. Required for the accumulation of respiratory complex I. Uses L-galactono-1,4-lactone and L-gulono-1,4-lactone as substrates, but not D-galactono-1,4-lactone, D-gulono-1,4-lactone, L-mannono-1,4-lactone or D-galactonic acid. Also active with phenazine methosulfate and 1,4-benzoquinone as electron acceptors.
