EC 1.13.11.54 Details
EC number
1.13.11.54
Accepted name
acireductone dioxygenase [iron(II)-requiring]
Reaction
1,2-dihydroxy-5-(methylsulfanyl)pent-1-en-3-one + O2 = 4-(methylsulfanyl)-2-oxobutanoate + formate
Other name(s)
ARD′, 2-hydroxy-3-keto-5-thiomethylpent-1-ene dioxygenase (ambiguous), acireductone dioxygenase (ambiguous), E-2′, E-3 dioxygenase, 1,2-dihydroxy-5-(methylthio)pent-1-en-3-one:oxygen oxidoreductase (formate-forming)
Systematic name
1,2-dihydroxy-5-(methylsulfanyl)pent-1-en-3-one:oxygen oxidoreductase (formate-forming)
Comment
Requires iron(II). If Ni2+ is bound instead of iron(II), the reaction catalysed by EC 1.13.11.53, acireductone dioxygenase (Ni2+-requiring), occurs instead. The enzyme from the bacterium Klebsiella oxytoca (formerly Klebsiella pneumoniae) ATCC strain 8724 is involved in the methionine salvage pathway.
