ID 1.14.19.48 DE tert-amyl alcohol desaturase. CA 2-methylbutan-2-ol + NADPH + O2 + H(+) = 3-hydroxy-3-methylbut-1-ene + CA NADP(+) + 2 H2O. CC -!- The enzyme, characterized from the bacterium Aquincola CC tertiaricarbonis can also act, with lower efficiency, on 2-butanol, CC converting it to but-1-en-3-ol. CC -!- Depending on the substrate, the enzyme also catalyzes EC 1.14.13.229. DR G8FRC5, MDPJ_AQUTE ; //
