ID   1.1.1.360
DE   glucose/galactose 1-dehydrogenase.
AN   dual-specific glucose/galactose dehydrogenase.
AN   glucose/galactose dehydrogenase.
AN   glucose (galactose) dehydrogenase.
CA   (1) D-glucose + NADP(+) = D-glucono-1,5-lactone + H(+) + NADPH.
CA   (2) D-galactose + NADP(+) = D-galactono-1,5-lactone + H(+) + NADPH.
CC   -!- The enzyme from the archaeon Picrophilus torridus is involved in
CC       glucose and galactose catabolism via the nonphosphorylative variant
CC       of the Entner-Doudoroff pathway.
CC   -!- It shows 20-fold higher activity with NADP(+) compared to NAD(+).
CC   -!- The oxidation of D-glucose and D-galactose is catalyzed at a
CC       comparable rate (cf. EC 1.1.1.119 and EC 1.1.1.120).
