In enzymology a glucuronolactone reductase (EC 1.1.1.20) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reactionL-gulono-14-lactone + NADP+ D-glucurono-36-lactone + NADPH + H+Thus the two substrates of this enzyme are L-gulono-14-lactone and NADP+ whereas its 3 products are D-glucurono-36-lactone NADPH and H+.This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases specifically those acting on the CH-OH group of donor with NAD+ or NADP+ as acceptor.
