ID 1.5.1.28 DE opine dehydrogenase. CA (2S)-2-[(R)-1-carboxyethylamino]pentanoate + H2O + NAD(+) = H(+) + L-2- CA aminopentanoate + NADH + pyruvate. CC -!- in the forward direction, the enzyme from Arthrobacter sp. acts also CC on secondary amine dicarboxylates such as CC N-(1-carboxyethyl)methionine and N-(1-carboxyethyl)phenylalanine. CC -!- Dehydrogenation forms an imine, which dissociates to the amino acid CC and pyruvate. CC -!- In the reverse direction, the enzyme acts also on neutral amino acids CC as an amino donor. CC -!- They include L-amino acids such as 2-aminopentanoic acid, CC 2-aminobutyric acid, 2-aminohexanoic acid, 3-chloroalanine, CC O-acetylserine, methionine, isoleucine, valine, phenylalanine, CC leucine and alanine. CC -!- The amino acceptors include 2-oxoacids such as pyruvate, CC oxaloacetate, glyoxylate and 2-oxobutyrate. DR Q44297, ODH_ARTSC ; //
