1.1.2.2 |
| Accepted name: |
mannitol dehydrogenase (cytochrome) |
| Reaction: |
D-mannitol + a ferricytochrome c = D-fructose + a ferrocytochrome c + 2 H+ |
| Other name(s): |
polyol dehydrogenase |
| Systematic name: |
D-mannitol:cytochrome-c 2-oxidoreductase |
| Comments: |
The enzyme from the bacterium Gluconobacter oxydans acts on polyols with a D-lyxo configuration, such as D-mannitol and D-sorbitol, with preference towards the former. |
