ID   1.1.2.8
DE   alcohol dehydrogenase (cytochrome c).
CA   a primary alcohol + 2 Fe(III)-[cytochrome c] = an aldehyde + 2 Fe(II)-
CA   [cytochrome c] + 2 H(+).
CC   -!- A periplasmic PQQ-containing quinoprotein.
CC   -!- Occurs in Pseudomonas and Rhodopseudomonas.
CC   -!- The enzyme from Pseudomonas aeruginosa uses a specific inducible
CC       cytochrome c550 as electron acceptor.
CC   -!- Acts on a wide range of primary and secondary alcohols, but not
CC       methanol.
CC   -!- It has a homodimeric structure (contrasting with the heterotetrameric
CC       structure of EC 1.1.2.7, methanol dehydrogenase (cytochrome c)).
CC   -!- It is routinely assayed with phenazine methosulfate as electron
CC       acceptor.
CC   -!- Activity is stimulated by ammonia or amines.
CC   -!- Like all other quinoprotein alcohol dehydrogenases it has an 8-bladed
CC       'propeller' structure, a calcium ion bound to the PQQ in the active
CC       site and an unusual disulfide ring structure in close proximity to
CC       the PQQ.
CC   -!- Formerly EC 1.1.99.8.
