id: GO:0047011
name: 2-dehydropantolactone reductase (A-specific) activity
namespace: molecular_function
type: go
obsolete: False

Description: Catalysis of the reaction: (R)-pantolactone + NADP+ = 2-dehydropantolactone + NADPH + H+. The reaction is A-specific (i.e. the pro-R hydrogen is transferred from the 4-position of reduced nicotinamide cofactor) with respect to NADP+.
