UniProtKB description:  Involved in the biosynthesis of the 2,3,6-trideoxysugar L-epivancosamine, the terminal sugar added to the aglycone scaffold of chloroeremomycin, a member of the glycopeptide antibiotics vancomycin family. Catalyzes the removal of the hydroxyl group at position C-2 of the hexose ring of dTDP-4-dehydro-6-deoxy-alpha-D-glucopyranose, and the oxidation of the hydroxyl group at position C-3 to form a carbonyl functionality. The product of the reaction, dTDP-2,6-dideoxy-D-glycero-hex-2-enos-4-ulose, is a highly unstable diketosugar, which spontaneously forms dTDP-3,4-didehydro-2,6-dideoxy-alpha-D-glucose.
