(R)-6-hydroxynicotine oxidase EC#: 1.5.3.6; ChemWhat Code: 1374441

Product Name (R)-6-hydroxynicotine oxidase
Example Structure Example Structure of (R)-6-hydroxynicotine oxidase EC#: 1.5.3.6
Synonyms 6-HDNO, 6-hydroxy-D-nicotine oxidase, D-6-hydroxynicotine oxidase
EC Number 1.5.3.6
CAS Registry Number 37233-46-8
Comments A flavoprotein (FAD). The enzyme, which participates in nicotine degradation, is specific for (R) isomer of 6-hydroxynicotine, derived from the uncommon (R)-nicotine. The bacterium Arthrobacter nicotinovorans, in which this enzyme was originally discovered, has a different enzyme that catalyses a similar reaction with the (S)-isomer (cf. EC 1.5.3.5, (S)-6-hydroxynicotine oxidase).
Cofactor FAD
History
Reactions (R)-6-hydroxynicotine + H(2)O + O(2) = 1-(6-hydroxypyridin-3-yl)-4- (methylamino)butan-1-one + H(2)O(2).
