DE   dimethylsulfone monooxygenase.
CA   dimethyl sulfone + FMNH2 + O2 = methanesulfinate + FMN + formaldehyde +
CA   H2O + 2 H(+).
CC   -!- The enzyme, characterized from Pseudomonas spp., is involved in a
CC       dimethyl sulfide degradation pathway.
CC   -!- It is dependent on NAD(P)H-dependent FMN reductase (EC 1.5.1.38,
CC       1.5.1.39, or 1.5.1.42), which provides it with reduced FMN.
CC   -!- The product, methanesulfinate, is oxidized spontaneously to
CC       methanesulfonate in the presence of dioxygen and FMNH2.
