EC 1.13.11.19 Details
EC number
1.13.11.19
Accepted name
cysteamine dioxygenase
Reaction
cysteamine + O2 = hypotaurine
Other name(s)
ADO (gene name), persulfurase, cysteamine oxygenase, cysteamine:oxygen oxidoreductase
Systematic name
2-aminoethanethiol:oxygen oxidoreductase
CAS registry number
9033-41-4
Comment
A non-heme iron protein that is involved in the biosynthesis of taurine. 3-Aminopropanethiol (homocysteamine) and 2-sulfanylethan-1-ol (2-mercaptoethanol) can also act as substrates, but glutathione, cysteine, and cysteine ethyl- and methyl esters are not good substrates [1,3].
