EC 2.6.1.95 Details
EC number
2.6.1.95
Accepted name
neomycin C transaminase
Reaction
neomycin C + 2-oxoglutarate = 6′′′-deamino-6′′′-oxoneomycin C + L-glutamate
Other name(s)
neoN (gene name)
Systematic name
2-oxoglutarate:neomycin C aminotransferase
Comment
The reaction occurs in vivo in the opposite direction. Involved in the biosynthetic pathway of aminoglycoside antibiotics of the neomycin family. Works in combination with EC 1.1.3.44, 6′′′-hydroxyneomycin C oxidase, to replace the 6′′′-hydroxy group of 6′′′-deamino-6′′′-hydroxyneomycin C with an amino group. The enzyme, characterized from the bacterium Streptomyces fradiae, can also catalyse EC 2.6.1.93, neamine transaminase.
