EC 1.14.13.230 Details
EC number
1.14.13.230
Accepted name
butane monooxygenase (soluble)
Reaction
butane + NADH + H+ + O2 = butan-1-ol + NAD+ + H2O
Other name(s)
sBMO, bmoBCDXYZ (gene names)
Systematic name
butane,NADH:oxygen oxidoreductase
Comment
The enzyme, characterized from the bacterium Thauera butanivorans, is similar to EC 1.14.13.25, methane monooxygenase (soluble), but has a very low activity with methane. It comprises three components - a carboxylate-bridged non-heme di-iron center-containing hydroxylase (made of three different subunits), a flavo-iron sulfur-containing NADH-oxidoreductase, and a small regulatory component protein. The enzyme can also act on other C3-C6 linear and branched aliphatic alkanes with lower activity.
