Reaction

Reaction Comment Organism Reaction ID
(S)-2-hydroxypropylphosphonate + H2O2 = (1R,2S)-1,2-epoxypropylphosphonate + 2 H2O an iron-redox mechanism is proposed in which the active site bound Fe2+ serves as a Lewis acid to activate the 2-OH group of (S)-2-hydroxypropylphosphonic acid, and the epoxide ring is formed by the attack of the 2-OH group at C-1 coupled with the transfer of the C-1 hydrogen as a hydride ion to the bound FMN Streptomyces wedmorensis

Cofactor

Cofactor Comment Organism Structure
FMN FMN is an artificial electron mediator for the in vitro HppE activity. It accepts a hydride from NADH and then passes electrons on to reduce the iron center of HppE. Several non-flavin electron mediators can replace FMN Streptomyces wedmorensis
