Structural highlights
Function
FCNLN_BURM1 L-fucono-1,5-lactonase involved in an L-fucose degradation pathway (PubMed:23214453). Catalyzes the hydrolysis of L-fucono-1,5-lactone to L-fuconate (PubMed:23214453). L-fucono-1,5-lactone is the best substrate, but the enzyme can also hydrolyze L-fucono-1,4-lactone, L-galactono-1,4-lactone D-arabinono-1,4-lactone and L-xylono-1,4-lactone (PubMed:23214453).[1]
