EC 1.4.2.3     
Accepted name: pseudooxynicotine dehydrogenase
Reaction: pseudooxynicotine + H2O + 2 ferricytochrome c = 4-oxo-4-(pyridin-3-yl)butanal + methylamine + 2 ferrocytochrome c + 2 H+
Glossary: pseudooxynicotine = 4-(methylamino)-1-(pyridin-3-yl)butan-1-one
Other name(s): pnaO (gene name)
Systematic name: 4-(methylamino)-1-(pyridin-3-yl)butan-1-one:c-type cytochrome oxidoreductase (methylamine releasing)
Comments: Contains one non-covalently bound FAD molecule per dimer. This enzyme, characterized from the soil bacteria Pseudomonas sp. HZN6 and Pseudomonas putida S16, is involved in nicotine degradation.
