L-galactonolactone dehydrogenase (EC 1.3.2.3, galactonolactone dehydrogenase, L-galactono-gamma-lactone dehydrogenase, L-galactono-gamma-lactone:ferricytochrome-c oxidoreductase, GLDHase, GLDase) is an enzyme with systematic name L-galactono-1,4-lactone:ferricytochrome-c oxidoreductase. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

(1) L-galactono-1,4-lactone + 2 ferricytochrome c L-ascorbate + 2 ferrocytochrome c + 2 H+
(2) L-ascorbate + 2 ferricytochrome c L-dehydroascorbate + 2 ferrocytochrome c + 2 H+ (spontaneous)

This enzyme catalyses the final step in the biosynthesis of L-ascorbic acid in plants and other photosynthetic eukaryotes. [6]

<small>L</small>-gulonolactone oxidase Enzyme involved in the synthesis of vitamin C

L-Gulonolactone oxidase is an enzyme that produces vitamin C, but is non-functional in Haplorrhini, in some bats, and in guinea pigs. It catalyzes the reaction of L-gulono-1,4-lactone with oxygen to form L-xylo-hex-3-gulonolactone (2-keto-gulono-γ-lactone) and hydrogen peroxide. It uses FAD as a cofactor. The L-xylo-hex-3-gulonolactone then converts to ascorbic acid spontaneously, without enzymatic action.
