CATH Clusters

Superfamily Uridine Diphospho-n-acetylenolpyruvylglucosamine Reductase, domain 2
Functional Family 6-hydroxy-D-nicotine oxidase

Enzyme Information

1.5.3.6
(R)-6-hydroxynicotine oxidase.
based on mapping to UniProt Q8GAG1
(R)-6-hydroxynicotine + H(2)O + O(2) = 1-(6-hydroxypyridin-3-yl)-4- (methylamino)butan-1-one + H(2)O(2).
-!- The enzyme, which participates in nicotine degradation, is specific for (R) isomer of 6-hydroxynicotine, derived from the uncommon (R)- nicotine. -!- The bacterium Arthrobacter nicotinovorans, in which this enzyme was originally discovered, has a different enzyme that catalyzes a similar reaction with the (S)-isomer (cf. EC 1.5.3.5).
