ENZYME entry: EC 1.13.12.15

Accepted Name
3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine oxidative deaminase
Alternative Name(s)
DOPAODA
DOPA oxidative deaminase
oxidative deaminase
Reaction catalysed
2 L-dopa + O2 = 2 3-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)pyruvate + 2 NH4(+)
Comment(s)
  • One of the three enzymes involved in L-dopa (3,4- dihydroxyphenylalanine) catabolism in the non-oxygenic phototrophic bacterium Rubrivivax benzoatilyticus OU5 (and not Rhodobacter sphaeroides OU5 as had been thought), the other two being EC 4.3.1.22 and EC 2.6.1.49.
  • In addition to DOPA, the enzyme can also use L-tyrosine, L-phenylalanine, L-tryptophan and glutamate as substrate, but more slowly.
  • Inhibited by NADH and 2-oxoglutarate.
