EC 3.5.99.10 Details
EC number
3.5.99.10
Accepted name
2-iminobutanoate/2-iminopropanoate deaminase
Reaction
(1) 2-iminobutanoate + H2O = 2-oxobutanoate + NH3;;(2) 2-iminopropanoate + H2O = pyruvate + NH3
Other name(s)
yjgF (gene name), ridA (gene name), enamine/imine deaminase (ambiguous)
Systematic name
2-iminobutanoate aminohydrolase
Comment
This enzyme, which has been found in all species and tissues examined, catalyses the hydrolytic deamination of imine intermediates formed by several types of pyridoxal-5′-phosphate-dependent dehydratases, such as EC 4.3.1.19, threonine ammonia-lyase and EC 4.3.1.17, L-serine ammonia-lyase. The reactions, which can occur spontaneously, are accelerated to minimize the cellular damage that could be caused by these reactive intermediates.
