ID   1.4.99.6
DE   D-arginine dehydrogenase.
AN   D-amino-acid dehydrogenase.
CA   A + D-arginine + H2O = 5-guanidino-2-oxopentanoate + AH2 + NH4(+).
CC   -!- The enzyme, which has been isolated from the bacterium Pseudomonas
CC       aeruginosa PAO1, forms with EC 1.4.1.25 a two-enzyme complex involved
CC       in the racemization of D- and L-arginine.
CC   -!- The enzyme has a broad substrate range and can act on most D-amino
CC       acids with the exception of D-glutamate and D-aspartate.
CC   -!- However, activity is maximal with D-arginine and D-lysine.
CC   -!- Not active on glycine.
CC   -!- Formerly EC 1.4.99.1.
