physiological function | in nicotine breakdown, two alternative pathways for the final steps in the catabolism of 4-methylaminobutanoate could be identified. 4-Methylaminobutanoate may be demethylated to gamma-N-aminobutyrate by gamma-N-methylaminobutanoate oxidase, EC 1.5.3.19. In an alternative pathway, amine oxidase, EC 1.5.3.21, removes methylamine from 4-methylaminobutanoate with the formation of succinic semialdehyde. Kinetic analyses suggest that demethylation predominates over deamination of 4-methylaminobutanoate | Paenarthrobacter nicotinovorans |
