- 3-aci-nitropropanoate oxidase
In
enzymology , a 3-aci-nitropropanoate oxidase (EC number|1.7.3.5) is anenzyme that catalyzes thechemical reaction :3-aci-nitropropanoate + O2 + H2O 3-oxopropanoate + nitrite + H2O2
The 3 substrates of this enzyme are
3-aci-nitropropanoate , O2, and H2O, whereas its 3 products are3-oxopropanoate ,nitrite , and H2O2.This enzyme belongs to the family of
oxidoreductase s, specifically those acting on other nitrogenous compounds as donors with oxygen as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is 3-aci-nitropropanoate:oxygen oxidoreductase. This enzyme is also called propionate-3-nitronate oxidase. It employs one cofactor,FMN .References
