1 We have discovered new characteristics of D-erythrulose reductase, namely, that it can catalyze reduction of not only D-erythrulose but also such diketones as diacetyl. diketones dicarbonyl and L-xylulose reductase Gallus gallus
2 The obtained results suggest that D-erythrulose reductase plays an important role in metabolizing alpha-dicarbonyls in animal organs, because these diketones widely occur in natural foods. diketones dicarbonyl and L-xylulose reductase Gallus gallus
