- Abscisic-aldehyde oxidase
In
enzymology , an abscisic-aldehyde oxidase (EC number|1.2.3.14) is anenzyme that catalyzes thechemical reaction :abscisic aldehyde + H2O + O2 abscisate + H2O2
The 3 substrates of this enzyme are
abscisic aldehyde , H2O, and O2, whereas its two products areabscisate and H2O2.This enzyme belongs to the family of
oxidoreductase s, specifically those acting on the aldehyde or oxo group of donor with oxygen as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is abscisic-aldehyde:oxygen oxidoreductase. Other names in common use include abscisic aldehyde oxidase, AAO3, AOd, and AOdelta. This enzyme participates incarotenoid biosynthesis - general .References
