In enzymology a dehydrogluconate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.99.4) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction2-dehydro-D-gluconate + acceptor 25-didehydro-D-gluconate + reduced acceptorThus the two substrates of this enzyme are 2-dehydro-D-gluconate and acceptor whereas its two products are 25-didehydro-D-gluconate and reduced acceptor.This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases specifically those acting on the CH-OH group of donor with other acceptors.
