1.14.20.7

Accepted name:

2-oxoglutarate/L-arginine monooxygenase/decarboxylase (succinate-forming)

Reaction:

L-arginine + 2-oxoglutarate + O₂ = succinate + CO₂ + guanidine + (S)-1-pyrroline-5-carboxylate + H₂O (overall reaction)
(1a) L-arginine + 2-oxoglutarate + O₂ = succinate + CO₂ + 5-hydroxy-L-arginine
(1b) 5-hydroxy-L-arginine = guanidine + (S)-1-pyrroline-5-carboxylate + H₂O

Other name(s):

ethene-forming enzyme; ethylene-forming enzyme; EFE

Systematic name:

L-arginine,2-oxoglutarate:oxygen oxidoreductase (succinate-forming)

Comments:

This is one of two simultaneous reactions catalysed by the enzyme, which is responsible for ethylene production in bacteria of the Pseudomonas syringae group. In the other reaction [EC 1.13.12.19, 2-oxoglutarate dioxygenase (ethene-forming)] the enzyme catalyses the dioxygenation of 2-oxoglutarate forming ethene and three molecules of carbon dioxide.The enzyme catalyses two cycles of the ethene-forming reaction for each cycle of the succinate-forming reaction, so that the stoichiometry of the products ethene and succinate is 2:1.
