EC 1.13.11.91 Details
EC number
1.13.11.91
Accepted name
3-mercaptopropionate dioxygenase
Reaction
3-sulfanylpropanoate + O2 = 3-sulfinopropanoate
Other name(s)
mdo (gene name), 3-mercaptopropionic acid dioxygenase, 3-sulfanylpropanoate dioxygenase
Systematic name
3-sulfanylpropanoate:oxygen oxidoreductase
Comment
This bacterial enzyme contains an iron(2+) atom coordinated by three protein-derived histidines and a Ser-His-Tyr motif. It is similar to EC 1.13.11.20, cysteine dioxygenase, and can act on L-cysteine, but has a much higher activity with its native substrate, 3-sulfanylpropanoate.
