Function
DHAR1_ORYSJ Involved in ascorbate homeostasis. Maintains redox pools of ascorbate by recycling dihydroascorbate (DHA) to ascorbate (Probable). Involved in scavenging reactive oxygen species (ROS) under oxidative stresses. Possesses dehydroascorbate reductase (DHAR) activity in vitro (PubMed:19011360). May function via a ping-pong reaction mechanism with an electron transfer at the active site (PubMed:26775680). Possesses chaperone-like activity in vitro (PubMed:26775680).[1] [2] [3]
