Description
Catalyzes the conversion of sedoheptulose 7-phosphate to demethyl-4-deoxygadusol (DDG) (PubMed:20813918, PubMed:22741921). Involved in the synthesis of the mycosporine-like amino acid shinorine, a natural sunscreen compound that protects the cell against UV radiation (PubMed:20813918).
Family
Belongs to the sugar phosphate cyclases superfamily. DDGS family.
