flavin-containing monooxygenase

 Product Information

Cat #
MEVP-0897
Similar
Enzyme Commission Number
EC 1.14.13.8
Product Overview
High-quality enzyme products.
Well-established quality management system.
Reaction
N,N-dimethylaniline + NADPH + H+ + O2 = N,N-dimethylaniline N-oxide + NADP+ + H2O
Systematic Name
N,N-dimethylaniline,NADPH:oxygen oxidoreductase (N-oxide-forming)
Function
A flavoprotein. A broad spectrum monooxygenase that accepts substrates as diverse as hydrazines, phosphines, boron-containing compounds, sulfides, selenides, iodide, as well as primary, secondary and tertiary amines. This enzyme is distinct from other monooxygenases in that the enzyme forms a relatively stable hydroperoxy flavin intermediate. This microsomal enzyme generally converts nucleophilic heteroatom-containing chemicals and drugs into harmless, readily excreted metabolites. For example, N-oxygenation is largely responsible for the detoxification of the dopaminergic neurotoxin 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP)
