| Accepted name: | 2-oxoglutarate/L-arginine monooxygenase/decarboxylase (succinate-forming) | ||||||||
| Reaction: | L-arginine + 2-oxoglutarate + O2 = L-glutamate 5-semialdehyde + guanidine + succinate + CO2 (overall reaction) (1a) L-arginine + 2-oxoglutarate + O2 = 5-hydroxy-L-arginine + succinate + CO2 (1b) 5-hydroxy-L-arginine = L-glutamate 5-semialdehyde + guanidine |

| 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 ethene (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. The product of the enzyme, L-glutamate 5-semialdehyde, exists in equilibrium with the cyclic form (S)-1-pyrroline-5-carboxylate. | ||||||||
