beta-L-fucopyranose:NADP+ 1-oxidoreductase
The enzyme, characterized from the bacterium Burkholderia multivorans, participates in an L-fucose degradation pathway. The enzyme catalyses the oxidation of beta-L-fucopyranose to L-fucono-1,5-lactone, which is unstable and is rapidly converted to L-fucono-1,4-lactone. The alpha anomer is not recognized. The enzyme can also act on beta-L-galactopyranose and D-arabinose with lower activity. NADP+ is a better cosubstrate than NAD+.
