EC number
1.14.13.251
Accepted name
glycine betaine monooxygenase
Reaction
glycine betaine + NADH + H+ + O2 = N,N-dimethylglycine + formaldehyde + NAD+ + H2O
Other name(s)
glycine betaine dioxygenase (incorrect), bmoAB (gene names), gbcAB (gene names)
Systematic name
glycine betaine,NADH:oxygen oxidoreductase (demethylating)
Comment
The enzyme, characterized from the bacteria Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Chromohalobacter salexigens, is involved in a degradation pathway of glycine betaine. It is composed of two subunits - a ferredoxin reductase component that contains FAD, and a terminal oxygenase component that contains a [2Fe-2S] Rieske-type iron-sulfur cluster and a nonheme iron centre.
