ID 4.2.1.130 DE D-lactate dehydratase. AN glyoxylase III. CA H2O + methylglyoxal = (R)-lactate + H(+). CC -!- The enzyme, described from the fungi Candida albicans and CC Schizosaccharomyces pombe, converts 2-oxopropanal to (R)-lactate in a CC single glutathione (GSH)-independent step. CC -!- The other known route for this conversion is the two-step GSH- CC dependent pathway catalyzed by EC 4.4.1.5 and EC 3.1.2.6.
