ID 1.1.2.11 DE glucoside 3-dehydrogenase (cytochrome c). AN D-aldohexopyranoside dehydrogenase. AN D-glucoside 3-dehydrogenase. AN hexopyranoside-cytochrome c oxidoreductase. CA a D-glucoside + 2 Fe(III)-[cytochrome c] = a 3-dehydro-D-glucoside + CA 2 Fe(II)-[cytochrome c] + 2 H(+). CC -!- This bacterial enzyme acts on D-glucose, D-galactose, D-glucosides CC and D-galactosides, but the best substrates are disaccharides with a CC glucose moiety at the non-reducing end. CC -!- It consists of two subunits, a catalytic subunit that contains an FAD CC cofactor and an iron-sulfur cluster, and a "hitch-hiker" subunit CC containing a signal peptide for translocation into the periplasm. CC -!- A dedicated c-type cytochrome protein serves as an electron acceptor, CC transferring the electrons from the catalytic subunit to the cell's CC electron transfer chain. cf. EC 1.1.99.13. //
