Sorbose dehydrogenase
Template:Infobox enzyme In enzymology, a sorbose dehydrogenase (Template:EC number) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
- L-sorbose + acceptor 5-dehydro-D-fructose + reduced acceptor
Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are L-sorbose and acceptor, whereas its two products are 5-dehydro-D-fructose and reduced acceptor.
This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the CH-OH group of donor with other acceptors. The systematic name of this enzyme class is L-sorbose:acceptor 5-oxidoreductase. This enzyme is also called L-sorbose:(acceptor) 5-oxidoreductase.
