DE   3,6-anhydro-alpha-L-galactose dehydrogenase.
CA   (1) 3,6-anhydro-alpha-L-galactopyranose + NAD(+) + H2O = 3,6-anhydro-L-
CA   galactonate + NADH + 2 H(+).
CA   (2) 3,6-anhydro-alpha-L-galactopyranose + NADP(+) + H2O = 3,6-anhydro-L-
CA   galactonate + NADPH + 2 H(+).
CC   -!- The enzyme, characterized from the marine bacterium Vibrio sp. EJY3,
CC       is involved in a degradation pathway for 3,6-anhydro-alpha-L-
CC       galactose, a major component of the polysaccharides produced by red
CC       macroalgae, such as agarose and porphyran.
