Summary
A genome sequence error, now repaired, previously fused dgoA and dgoD. [More information is available at EcoGene: EG20050]. D-galactonate dehydratase catalyzes the first step in the degradation of D-galactonate, the dehydration of D-galactonate to form 2-dehydro-3-deoxygalactonate . [More information is available at EcoCyc: GB4478].
