IntEnz Enzyme Nomenclature
EC 1.1.1.16

Names

Accepted name:
galactitol 2-dehydrogenase
Other names:
dulcitol dehydrogenase
AtuSorbD
galactitol:NAD+ 2-oxidoreductase
Systematic name:
galactitol:NAD+ 2-oxidoreductase (D-tagatose-forming)

Reaction

Comments:

Also converts other alditols containing an L-threo-configuration adjacent to a primary alcohol group into the corresponding sugars. The enzyme from Agrobacterium rubrum C58 is part of D-altritol and galactitol degradation pathways.
