β-Galactose Dehydrogenase from Pseudomonas fluorescens has been used for competitive inhibition in lectin histochemistry. It has also been used to measure the hydrolysis activity of Haloferax alicantei β-galactosidase on different disaccharides.
Biochem/physiol Actions
β-galactose dehydrogenase catalyzes the oxidation of β-D-galactose to D-galactono-gammalactone.
