ENZYME entry: EC 1.5.3.10

PURL: https://purl.expasy.org/enzyme/EC/1.5.3.10
Accepted Name
dimethylglycine oxidase
Reaction catalysed
N,N-dimethylglycine + (6S)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrofolate + O2 = sarcosine + (6R)-5,10-methylene-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrofolate + H2O2
Comment(s)
  • A flavoprotein (FAD).
  • The enzyme, characterized from the bacterium Arthrobacter globiformis, contains two active sites connected by a large 'reaction chamber'.
  • An imine intermediate is transferred between the sites, eliminating the production of toxic formaldehyde.
  • In the absence of folate the enzyme does form formaldehyde.
  • Does not oxidize sarcosine. cf. EC 1.5.8.4.
