1.4.1.25 |
Accepted name: |
L-arginine dehydrogenase |
Reaction: |
L-arginine + H2O + NAD(P)+ = 5-guanidino-2-oxopentanoate + NH3 + NAD(P)H + H+ |
Other name(s): |
dauB (gene name); anabolic L-arginine dehydrogenase |
Systematic name: |
L-arginine:NAD(P)+ oxidoreductase (deaminating) |
Comments: |
The enzyme, which has been isolated from the bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1, forms with EC 1.4.99.6, D-arginine dehydrogenase, a two-enzyme complex involved in the racemization of D- and L-arginine. |
