| EC | 1.14.14.5 | ||
| Accepted name: | alkanesulfonate monooxygenase | ||
| Reaction: | an alkanesulfonate + FMNH2 + O2 = an aldehyde + FMN + sulfite + H2O | ||
| Glossary: | an alkanesulfonate = R-CH2-SO3- an aldehyde = R-CHO |
||
| Other name(s): | SsuD; sulfate starvation-induced protein 6; alkanesulfonate,reduced-FMN:oxygen oxidoreductase | ||
| Systematic name: | alkanesulfonate,FMNH2:oxygen oxidoreductase | ||
| Comments: | The enzyme from Escherichia coli catalyses the desulfonation of a wide range of aliphatic sulfonates (unsubstituted C1- to C14-sulfonates as well as substituted C2-sulfonates). Does not desulfonate taurine (2-aminoethanesulfonate) or aromatic sulfonates. Does not use FMN as a bound cofactor. Instead, it uses reduced FMN (i.e., FMNH2) as a substrate. FMNH2 is provided by SsuE, the associated FMN reductase (EC 1.5.1.38). | ||
