ENZYME entry: EC 1.14.99.67

PURL: https://purl.expasy.org/enzyme/EC/1.14.99.67
Accepted Name
alpha-N-dichloroacetyl-p-aminophenylserinol N-oxygenase
Reaction catalysed
alpha-N-dichloroacetyl-p-aminophenylserinol + AH2 + 2 O2 = chloramphenicol + A + 2 H2O
Comment(s)
  • The enzyme, isolated from the bacterium Streptomyces venezuelae, is involved in the biosynthesis of the antibiotic chloramphenicol.
  • It contains a carboxylate-bridged binuclear non-heme iron cluster.
  • The components of the native electron chain have not been identified, although the immediate donor is likely to be an iron-sulfur protein.
  • The reaction mechanism involves formation of an extremely stable peroxo intermediate that catalyzes three individual two-electron oxidations via a hydroxylamine and a nitroso intermediates without releasing the intermediates. cf. EC 1.14.99.68.
