Reaction: D-glucose + a quinone = D-glucono-1,5-lactone + a quinol
Other name(s): glucose dehydrogenase (Aspergillus); FAD-dependent glucose dehydrogenase; D-glucose:(acceptor) 1-oxidoreductase; glucose dehydrogenase (acceptor); gdh (gene name)
Systematic name: D-glucose:quinone 1-oxidoreductase
Comments: A glycoprotein containing one mole of FAD per mole of enzyme. 2,6-Dichloroindophenol can act as acceptor. cf. EC 1.1.5.2, quinoprotein glucose dehydrogenase.
