1.13.11.89 |
Accepted name: |
(hydroxymethyl)phosphonate dioxygenase |
Reaction: |
(hydroxymethyl)phosphonate + O2 = formate + phosphate |
Other name(s): |
phnZ1 (gene name) |
Systematic name: |
(hydroxymethyl)phosphonate:oxygen 1-oxidoreductase (formate-forming) |
Comments: |
Requires iron(II). The enzyme, characterized from the marine bacterium Gimesia maris, participates in a methylphosphonate degradation pathway. It also has the activity of EC 1.13.11.78, (2-amino-1-hydroxyethyl)phosphonate dioxygenase (glycine-forming). |
