EC 1.14.13.229 Details
EC number
1.14.13.229
Accepted name
tert-butyl alcohol monooxygenase
Reaction
tert-butyl alcohol + NADPH + H+ + O2 = 2-methylpropane-1,2-diol + NADP+ + H2O
Other name(s)
mdpJK (gene names), tert-butanol monooxygenase
Systematic name
tert-butyl alcohol,NADPH:oxygen oxidoreductase
Comment
The enzyme, characterized from the bacterium Aquincola tertiaricarbonis, is a Rieske nonheme mononuclear iron oxygenase. It can also act, with lower efficiency, on propan-2-ol, converting it to propane-1,2-diol. Depending on the substrate, the enzyme also catalyses EC 1.14.19.48, tert-amyl alcohol desaturase.
