6-Hydroxypseudooxynicotine dehydrogenase

Class of enzymes


6-hydroxypseudooxynicotine dehydrogenase (EC 1.5.99.14) is an enzyme with systematic name 1-(6-hydroxypyridin-3-yl)-4-(methylamino)butan-1-one:acceptor 6-oxidoreductase (hydroxylating).[1][2][3] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction:

1-(6-hydroxypyridin-3-yl)-4-(methylamino)butan-1-one + acceptor + H2O 1-(2,6-dihydroxypyridin-3-yl)-4-(methylamino)butan-1-one + reduced acceptor
Quick Facts Identifiers, EC no. ...

This enzyme contains a cytidylyl molybdenum cofactor.
