Comments: This enzyme catalyses the rst committed step in the phosphoserine pathway of serine biosynthe-
sis in Escherichia coli [1759, 2623]. Reaction (1) occurs predominantly in the reverse direction
and is inhibited by serine and glycine. The enzyme is unusual in that it also acts as a D- and L-2-
hydroxyglutarate dehydrogenase (with the D-form being the better substrate) and as a 2-oxoglutarate
reductase [2623]. It has been postulated [2623] that the cellular 2-oxoglutarate concentration may
regulate serine biosynthesis and one-carbon metabolism directly by modulating the activity of this
enzyme.

(geranylgeranylglycerol-phosphate geranylgeranyltransferase), which together alkylate the hydroxy
groups of glycerol 1-phosphate to give unsaturated archaetidic acid, which is acted upon by EC
2.7.7.67 (CDP-archaeol synthase) to form CDP-unsaturated archaeol. The nal step in the pathway

Other name(s): methanol dehydrogenase; MDH
Systematic name: methanol:cytochrome c oxidoreductase
Comments: A periplasmic quinoprotein alcohol dehydrogenase that only occurs in methylotrophic bacteria. It
uses the novel specic cytochrome c
l
as acceptor. Acts on a wide range of primary alcohols, includ-
ing ethanol, duodecanol, chloroethanol, cinnamyl alcohol, and also formaldehyde. Activity is stimu-
lated by ammonia or methylamine. It is usually assayed with phenazine methosulphate. Like all other
quinoprotein alcohol dehydrogenases it has an 8-bladed propeller structure, a calcium ion bound to
the PQQ in the active site and an unusual disulphide ring structure in close proximity to the PQQ. It
differs from EC 1.1.2.8, alcohol dehydrogenase (cytochrome c), in having a high afnity for methanol
and in having a second essential small subunit (no known function).

Comments: A periplasmic PQQ-containing quinoprotein. Occurs in Pseudomonas and Rhodopseudomonas. The
enzyme from Pseudomonas aeruginosa uses a specic inducible cytochrome c
550
as electron accep-
tor. Acts on a wide range of primary and secondary alcohols, but not methanol. It has a homodimeric
structure [contrasting with the heterotetrameric structure of EC 1.1.2.7, methanol dehydrogenase (cy-
tochrome c)]. It is routinely assayed with phenazine methosulphate as electron acceptor. Activity is
stimulated by ammonia or amines. Like all other quinoprotein alcohol dehydrogenases it has an 8-
bladed propeller structure, a calcium ion bound to the PQQ in the active site and an unusual disul-
phide ring structure in close proximity to the PQQ.

Comments: A avoprotein (FAD). In many bacteria, plants and animals, the osmoprotectant betaine is synthesized
using different enzymes to catalyse the conversion of (1) choline into betaine aldehyde and (2) betaine
aldehyde into betaine. In plants, the rst reaction is catalysed by EC 1.14.15.7, choline monooxyge-
nase, whereas in animals and many bacteria, it is catalysed by either membrane-bound choline de-
hydrogenase (EC 1.1.99.1) or soluble choline oxidase (EC 1.1.3.17) [2413]. The enzyme involved in
the second step, EC 1.2.1.8, betaine-aldehyde dehydrogenase, appears to be the same in those plants,
animals and bacteria that use two separate enzymes.

glycine. This route is found in the mitochondria of fungi and animals, organelles that are considered
to be derived from an endosymbiotic -proteobacterium. Although higher plants do not possess EC
2.3.1.37, the protistan Euglena gracilis possesses both the C5 pathway and EC 2.3.1.37.

oxidoreductase
Comments: This is the fourth enzyme in the arginine succinyltransferase (AST) pathway for the catabolism
of arginine [2455]. This pathway converts the carbon skeleton of arginine into glutamate, with
the concomitant production of ammonia and conversion of succinyl-CoA into succinate and CoA.
The ve enzymes involved in this pathway are EC 2.3.1.109 (arginine N-succinyltransferase), EC
3.5.3.23 (N-succinylarginine dihydrolase), EC 2.6.1.11 (acetylornithine transaminase), EC 1.2.1.71
(succinylglutamate-semialdehyde dehydrogenase) and EC 3.5.1.96 (succinylglutamate desuccinylase)

Comments: This enzyme catalyses the second of three steps leading to the formation of siroheme from uropor-
phyrinogen III. The rst step involves the donation of two S-adenosyl-L-methionine-derived methyl
groups to carbons 2 and 7 of uroporphyrinogen III to form precorrin-2 (EC 2.1.1.107, uroporphyrin-
III C-methyltransferase) and the third step involves the chelation of ferrous iron to sirohydrochlorin
to form siroheme (EC 4.99.1.4, sirohydrochlorin ferrochelatase). In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the
last two steps are carried out by a single bifunctional enzyme, Met8p. In some bacteria, steps 1-3 are
catalysed by a single multifunctional protein called CysG, whereas in Bacillus megaterium, three sep-
arate enzymes carry out each of the steps, with SirC being responsible for the above reaction.

catula (MtANR) uses both NADPH and NADH as reductant, that from the crucifer Arabidopsis
thaliana (AtANR) uses only NADPH. Also, while the substrate preference of MtANR is cyani-
dinpelargonidindelphinidin, the reverse preference is found with AtANR.

Systematic name: primary uorescent chlorophyll catabolite:NADP

oxidoreductase
Comments: Chlorophyll degradation is a characteristic symptom of leaf senescence and fruit ripening. The re-
action catalysed by this enzyme requires reduced ferredoxin, which is generated either by NADPH
through the pentose-phosphate pathway or by the action of photosystem I [1875, 2523]. This reaction
takes place without release of the substrate from EC 1.14.12.20, pheophorbide a oxygenase [1788].
Depending on the plant species used as the source of enzyme, one of two possible C-1 epimers of
primary uorescent chlorophyll catabolite (pFCC), pFCC-1 or pFCC-2, is normally formed, with all
genera or species within a family producing the same isomer [1788, 929]. After modication and ex-
port, pFCCs are eventually imported into the vacuole, where the acidic environment causes their non-
enzymic conversion into colourless breakdown products called non-uorescent chlorophyll catabolites
(NCCs) [2523].

Comments: The reaction occurs in the opposite direction to that shown above. The enzyme participates in the

Systematic name: coproporphyrinogen-III:S-adenosyl-L-methionine oxidoreductase (decarboxylating)
Comments: This enzyme differs from EC 1.3.3.3, coproporphyrinogen oxidase, by using S-adenosyl-L-methionine
(AdoMet) instead of oxygen as oxidant. It occurs mainly in bacteria, whereas eukaryotes use the
oxygen-dependent oxidase. The reaction starts by using an electron from the reduced form of the en-
zymes [4Fe-4S] cluster to split AdoMet into methionine and the radical 5
-deoxyadenosin-5
-yl. This
radical initiates attack on the 2-carboxyethyl groups, leading to their conversion into vinyl groups.

Comments: A mitochondrial outer-membrane avoprotein (FAD) that catalyses the oxidative deamination of
neurotransmitters and biogenic amines [551]. Acts on primary amines, and also on some secondary
and tertiary amines. It differs from EC 1.4.3.21, primary-amine oxidase as it can oxidize secondary
and tertiary amines but not methylamine. This enzyme is inhibited by acetylenic compounds such as
chlorgyline, 1-deprenyl and pargyline but, unlike EC 1.4.3.21 and EC 1.4.3.22 (diamine oxidase), it is
not inhibited by semicarbazide.

Comments: In the forward direction, the enzyme from Arthrobacter sp. acts also on secondary amine dicarboxy-
lates such as N-(1-carboxyethyl)methionine and N-(1-carboxyethyl)phenylalanine. Dehydrogena-
tion forms an imine, which dissociates to the amino acid and pyruvate. In the reverse direction, the
enzyme acts also on neutral amino acids as an amino donor. They include L-amino acids such as 2-
aminopentanoic acid, 2-aminobutyric acid, 2-aminohexanoic acid, 3-chloroalanine, O-acetylserine,
methionine, isoleucine, valine, phenylalanine, leucine and alanine. The amino acceptors include 2-
oxoacids such as pyruvate, oxaloacetate, glyoxylate and 2-oxobutyrate.

Comments: The enzyme from Leishmania (both amastigote and promastigote forms) catalyses the reduction by
NADPH of folate and a wide variety of unconjugated pterins, including biopterin, to their tetrahy-
dro forms. It also catalyses the reduction of 7,8-dihydropterins and 7,8-dihydrofolate to their tetrahy-
dro forms. In contrast to EC 1.5.1.3 (dihydrofolate reductase) and EC 1.5.1.34 (6,7-dihydropteridine

biopterin. The enzyme is specic for NADPH; no activity has been detected with NADH. It also dif-
fers from EC 1.5.1.3 (dihydrofolate reductase) in being specic for the B side of NADPH.

ribosyltransferase. Queosine is found in the wobble position of tRNA
GUN
in Eukarya and Bacteria
[2574] and is thought to be involved in translational modulation. The enzyme is not a GTP cyclohy-

Comments: The reaction is catalysed by two types of enzymes, found in the perimplasm of denitrifying bacte-
ria. One type comprises proteins containing multiple copper centres, the other a heme protein, cy-
tochrome cd
1
. Acceptors include c-type cytochromes such as cytochrome c-550 or cytochrome c-551
from Paracoccus denitricans or Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and small blue copper proteins such as
azurin and pseudoazurin. Cytochrome cd
1
also has oxidase and hydroxylamine reductase activities.
May also catalyse the reaction of hydroxylamine reductase (EC 1.7.99.1) since this is a well-known
activity of cytochrome cd
1
.

-(dihydrolipoyl)lysine:NAD

oxidoreductase
Comments: A avoprotein (FAD). A component of the multienzyme 2-oxo-acid dehydrogenase complexes.
In the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex, it binds to the core of EC 2.3.1.12, dihydrolipoyllysine-
residue acetyltransferase, and catalyses oxidation of its dihydrolipoyl groups. It plays a similar role
in the oxoglutarate and 3-methyl-2-oxobutanoate dehydrogenase complexes. Another substrate is
the dihydrolipoyl group in the H-protein of the glycine-cleavage system (click here for diagram), in
which it acts, together with EC 1.4.4.2, glycine dehydrogenase (decarboxylating), and EC 2.1.2.10,
aminomethyltransferase, to break down glycine. It can also use free dihydrolipoate, dihydrolipoamide
or dihydrolipoyllysine as substrate. This enzyme was rst shown to catalyse the oxidation of NADH
by methylene blue; this activity was called diaphorase. The glycine cleavage system is composed of
four components that only loosely associate: the P protein (EC 1.4.4.2), the T protein (EC 2.1.2.10),
the L protein (EC 1.8.1.4) and the lipoyl-bearing H protein [1608].

Comments: This enzyme differs from EC 1.8.99.2, adenylyl-sulfate reductase, in using glutathione as the reduc-
tant. Glutathione can be replaced by -glutamylcysteine or dithiothreitol, but not by thioredoxin,
glutaredoxin or mercaptoethanol. The enzyme from the mouseear cress, Arabidopsis thaliana, con-
tains a glutaredoxin-like domain. The enzyme is also found in other photosynthetic eukaryotes, e.g.,
the Madagascar periwinkle, Catharanthus roseus and the hollow green seaweed, Enteromorpha in-
testinalis.

Comments: Uses adenylyl sulfate, not phosphoadenylyl sulfate, distinguishing this enzyme from EC 1.8.4.8,
phosphoadenylyl-sulfate reductase (thioredoxin). Uses thioredoxin as electron donor, not glutathione
or other donors, distinguishing it from EC 1.8.4.9 [adenylyl-sulfate reductase (glutathione)] and EC

Systematic name: peptide-L-methionine:thioredoxin-disulde S-oxidoreductase [L-methionine (S)-S-oxide-forming]
Comments: The reaction occurs in the reverse direction to that shown above. The enzyme exhibits high specicity
for the reduction of the S-form of L-methionine S-oxide, acting faster on the residue in a peptide than
on the free amino acid [1680]. On the free amino acid, it can also reduce D-methionine (S)-S-oxide
but more slowly [1680]. The enzyme plays a role in preventing oxidative-stress damage caused by re-
active oxygen species by reducing the oxidized form of methionine back to methionine and thereby
reactivating peptides that had been damaged. In some species, e.g. Neisseria meningitidis, both this
enzyme and EC 1.8.4.12, peptide-methionine (R)-S-oxide reductase, are found within the same pro-
tein whereas, in other species, they are separate proteins [1528, 229]. The reaction proceeds via a
sulfenic-acid intermediate [584, 257].

Systematic name: peptide-methionine:thioredoxin-disulde S-oxidoreductase [methionine (R)-S-oxide-forming]
Comments: The reaction occurs in the reverse direction to that shown above. The enzyme exhibits high speci-
city for reduction of the R-form of methionine S-oxide, with higher activity being observed with
L-methionine S-oxide than with D-methionine S-oxide [1680]. While both free and protein-bound
methionine (R)-S-oxide act as substrates, the activity with the peptide-bound form is far greater
[1915]. The enzyme plays a role in preventing oxidative-stress damage caused by reactive oxygen
species by reducing the oxidized form of methionine back to methionine and thereby reactivating
peptides that had been damaged. In some species, e.g. Neisseria meningitidis, both this enzyme and
EC 1.8.4.11, peptide-methionine (S)-S-oxide reductase, are found within the same protein whereas in
other species, they are separate proteins [2071, 584]. The reaction proceeds via a sulfenic-acid inter-
mediate [584, 1915]. For MsrB2 and MsrB3, thioredoxin is a poor reducing agent but thionein works
well []. The enzyme from some species contains selenocysteine and Zn

Other name(s): Srx1; sulphiredoxin; peroxiredoxin-(S-hydroxy-S-oxocysteine) reductase
Systematic name: peroxiredoxin-(S-hydroxy-S-oxocysteine):thiol oxidoreductase [ATP-hydrolysing; peroxiredoxin-(S-
hydroxycysteine)-forming]
Comments: In the course of the reaction of EC 1.11.1.15, peroxiredoxin, its cysteine residue is alternately ox-
idized to the sulfenic acid, S-hydroxycysteine, and reduced back to cysteine. Occasionally the S-
hydroxycysteine residue is further oxidized to the sulnic acid S-hydroxy-S-oxocysteine, thereby
inactivating the enzyme. The reductase provides a mechanism for regenerating the active form of per-
oxiredoxin, i.e. the peroxiredoxin-(S-hydroxycysteine) form. Apparently the reductase rst catalyses
the phosphorylation of the -S(O)-OH group by ATP to give -S(O)-O-P, which is attached to the perox-
iredoxin by a cysteine residue, forming an -S(O)-S- link between the two enzymes. Attack by a thiol
splits this bond, leaving the peroxiredoxin as the sulfenic acid and the reductase as the thiol.

Systematic name: thiol-containing-reductant:hydroperoxide oxidoreductase
Comments: Peroxiredoxins (Prxs) are a ubiquitous family of antioxidant proteins. They can be divided into
three classes: typical 2-Cys, atypical 2-Cys and 1-Cys peroxiredoxins [2514]. The peroxidase reac-
tion comprises two steps centred around a redox-active cysteine called the peroxidatic cysteine. All
three peroxiredoxin classes have the rst step in common, in which the peroxidatic cysteine attacks
the peroxide substrate and is oxidized to S-hydroxycysteine (a sulfenic acid) (see mechanism). The
second step of the peroxidase reaction, the regeneration of cysteine from S-hydroxycysteine, distin-
guishes the three peroxiredoxin classes. For typical 2-Cys Prxs, in the second step, the peroxidatic
S-hydroxycysteine from one subunit is attacked by the resolving cysteine located in the C-terminus
of the second subunit, to form an intersubunit disulde bond, which is then reduced by one of sev-
eral cell-specic thiol-containing reductants (R
) non-enzymically
[1881].

Comments: From the soft coral coelenterate Renilla reniformis. The luciferin is bound to a luciferin-binding pro-
tein (BP-LH2). The bioluminescent reaction between the luciferin complex, luciferase and oxygen is
triggered by calcium ions. In vivo, the excited state luciferinluciferase complex undergoes the pro-
cess of nonradiative energy transfer to an accessory protein, Renilla green uorescent protein, which
results in green bioluminescence. In vitro, Renilla luciferase emits blue light in the absence of any
green uorescent protein.

Systematic name: pentachlorophenol,NADPH:oxygen oxidoreductase (hydroxylating, dechlorinating)
Comments: A avoprotein (FAD). The enzyme displaces a diverse range of substituents from the 4-position of
polyhalogenated phenols but requires that a halogen substituent be present at the 2-position [2531].
The enzyme converts many polyhalogenated phenols into hydroquinones, and requires that a halo-
gen substituent be present at C-2 [2531]. If C-4 carries a halogen substituent, reaction 1 is catalysed,
e.g. 2,4,6-triiodophenol is oxidized to 2,6-diiodohydroquinone; if C-4 is unsubstituted, reaction 2 is
catalysed.

corresponding 17-hydroxysteroid 17-acetate ester, such as testosterone acetate, is shown in Reac-
tion (1). The oxidative lactonization of a number of derivatives of androstenedione to produce the
13,17-secoandrosteno-17,13-lactone, such as testololactone, is shown in Reaction (2). The oxidative
cleavage of the 17-side-chain of 17-hydroxyprogesterone to produce androstenedione and acetate
is shown in Reaction (3). Reaction (1) is also catalysed by EC 1.14.99.4 (progesterone monooxyge-
nase), and Reactions (2) and (3) correspond to that catalysed by EC 1.14.99.12 (androst-4-ene-3,17-

to EC 1.14.99.4 and EC 1.14.99.12 in other tissues cannot be excluded.

. Catalyses the rst step of glycine betaine
synthesis. In many bacteria, plants and animals, betaine is synthesized in two steps: (1) choline to
betaine aldehyde and (2) betaine aldehyde to betaine. Different enzymes are involved in the rst re-
action. In plants, the reaction is catalysed by this enzyme whereas in animals and many bacteria, it
is catalysed by either membrane-bound choline dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.99.1) or soluble choline ox-
idase (EC 1.1.3.17) [2413]. The enzyme involved in the second step, EC 1.2.1.8, betaine-aldehyde
dehydrogenase, appears to be the same in plants, animals and bacteria. In some bacteria, betaine is
synthesized from glycine through the actions of EC 2.1.1.156, glycine/sarcosine N-methyltransferase
and EC 2.1.1.157, sarcosine/dimethylglycine N-methyltransferase.

Comments: This enzyme, which has been found mainly in plants, introduces a double bond at
8
of C
18
and C
20
fatty acids [2106]. The enzyme from the marine microalga Euglena gracilis requires a double bond
to be present at
11
and is most active with 20:3
11,14,17
and 20:2
11,14
as substrates, although it
can also desaturate 20:1
11
[2426]. The
8
-desaturation pathway represents an alternate pathway
for the synthesis of the polyunsaturated fatty acids arachidonate (C20:4
5,14
) and eicosapentaenoate
(C20:5
5,17
) in organisms lacking a
6
-desaturase [2426]. The enzyme from the sunower He-
lianthus annuus and from the herb Borago ofcinalis comprises a C-terminal desaturase domain and
an N-terminal cytochrome-b
5
domain [2106].

-oxidoreductase
Comments: In common with front-end desaturases involved in the synthesis of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PU-
FAs), this membrane-bound enzyme has a cytochrome b
5
-like domain at the N-terminus and con-
tains three histidine boxes that are critical for desaturase activity [2312]. The enzyme from the marine
microalga Thalassiosira pseudonana specically desaturates palmitic acid 16:0 to 16:1
11
[2312]
whereas that from the leafroller moth Choristoneura rosaceana desaturates myristic acid 14:0 to
14:1
11
[818]. 16:1
11
represents an important precursor for pheromone synthesis in insect cells, al-
though its function in microalgae is currently unknown [2312]. The enzyme from the Egyptian cotton
leafworm Spodoptera littoralis has a preference for palmitoyl-CoA as substrate and for NADH rather
than NADPH as reduced acceptor [1877].

Comments: Unlike most other sterol hydroxylases, this enzyme is not a cytochrome P-450. Instead, it uses diiron
cofactors to catalyse the hydroxylation of hydrophobic substrates [1349]. The diiron cofactor can be
either Fe-O-Fe or Fe-OH-Fe and is bound to the enzyme through interactions with clustered histidine
or glutamate residues [618, 1905]. In cell cultures, this enzyme down-regulates cholesterol synthesis
and the processing of sterol regulatory element binding proteins (SREBPs).

oxidoreductase
Comments: An iron-sulfur protein that contains either a [3Fe-4S] [749] or a [4Fe-4S] [2506] cluster. This en-
zyme comprises a system in which ferredoxin is rst reduced and subsequently reoxidized by an
NAD(P)
+
-dependent reductase. This is the last enzyme in the non-mevalonate pathway for isoprenoid
biosynthesis. This pathway, also known as the 1-deoxy-D-xylulose 5-phosphate (DOXP) or as the
2-C-methyl-D-erythritol-4-phosphate (MEP) pathway, is found in most bacteria and in plant chloro-
plasts. The enzyme acts in the reverse direction, producing a 5:1 mixture of isopentenyl diphosphate
and dimethylallyl diphosphate.

Comments: The enzyme catalyses the synthesis of catechin, catechin-4-ol (leucocyanidin) and the related avan-
3-ols afzelechin and gallocatechin, which are initiating monomers in the synthesis of plant poly-
meric proanthocyanidins or condensed tannins. While 2,3-trans-3,4-cis-leucocyanidin is the preferred
avan-3,4-diol substrate, 2,3-trans-3,4-cis-leucodelphinidin and 2,3-trans-3,4-cis-leucopelargonidin
can also act as substrates, but more slowly. NADH can replace NADPH but is oxidized more slowly.

oxidoreductase
Comments: Acts on a variety of purines and aldehydes, including hypoxanthine. The enzyme from eukaryotes
contains [2Fe-2S], FAD and a molybdenum centre. The animal enzyme can be interconverted to
EC 1.17.3.2, xanthine oxidase (the oxidase form). That from liver exists in vivo mainly in the de-
hydrogenase form, but can be converted into EC 1.17.3.2 by storage at -20 C, by treatment with
proteolytic agents or organic solvents, or by thiol reagents such as Cu
2+
, N-ethylmaleimide or 4-
mercuribenzoate. The effect of thiol reagents can be reversed by thiols such as 1,4-dithioerythritol.
This enzyme can also be converted into EC 1.17.3.2 by EC 1.8.4.7, enzyme-thiol transhydrogenase
(glutathione-disulde) in the presence of glutathione disulde. In other animal tissues, the enzyme
exists almost entirely as EC 1.17.3.2, but can be converted into the dehydrogenase form by 1,4-
dithioerythritol.

Comments: This two-component enzyme from Pseudomonas belongs to the family of xanthine dehydrogenases,
but differs from most other members of this family. While most members contain an FAD cofactor,
the large subunit of this enzyme contains three c-type cytochromes, enabling it to interact with the
electron transfer chain, probably by delivering the electrons to a cytochrome oxidase. The small sub-
unit contains a typical molybdopterin cytosine dinucleotide(MCD) cofactor and two [2Fe-2S] clusters
[1027].

propanoyl-CoA, crotonyl-CoA, succinyl-CoA and 3-hydroxybenzoyl-CoA cannot act as substrates.
The oxygen atom introduced into the product, phenylglyoxylyl-CoA, is derived from water and not
molecular oxygen. Duroquinone, menaquinone and 2,6-dichlorophenolindophenol (DCPIP) can act as
acceptor, but the likely physiological acceptor is ubiquinone [1849]. A second enzyme, EC 3.1.2.25,

Comments: An iron-sulfur protein that contains a [4Fe-4S] cluster [856, 1666]. Forms, in the reverse direction,
part of an alternative non-mevalonate pathway for isoprenoid biosynthesis that is found in most bac-
teria and in plant chloroplasts [2002]. The enzyme from the plant Arabidopsis thaliana is active with
photoreduced 5-deazaavin but not with the avodoxin/avodoxin reductase/NADPH system that can
be used as an electron donor by Escherichia coli [1666]. Metabolites derived from isoprenoids play
important roles in systems such as electron transport, photosynthesis, plant defense responses, hor-
monal regulation of development and membrane uidity [856].

Systematic name: (25R)-3,7,12-trihydroxy-5-cholestan-26-oyl-CoA:acceptor 24-oxidoreductase (24R-

Comments: Requires ATP. The reaction in mammals possibly involves dehydrogenation to give a 24(25)-double
bond followed by hydration [783]. However, in amphibians such as the Oriental re-bellied toad
(Bombina orientalis), it is probable that the product is formed via direct hydroxylation of the saturated
side chain of (25R)-3,7,12-trihydroxy-5-cholestan-26-oate and not via hydration of a 24(25)
double bond [1737]. In microsomes, the free acid is preferred to the coenzyme A ester, whereas in
mitochondria, the coenzyme A ester is preferred to the free-acid form of the substrate [783].

doreductase
Systematic name: deoxycholate:FAD oxidoreductase (7-dehydroxylating)
Comments: Under physiological conditions, the reactions occur in the reverse direction to that shown above. This
enzyme is highly specic for bile-acid substrates and requires a free C-24 carboxy group and an un-
hindered 7-hydroxy group on the B-ring of the steroid nucleus for activity, as found in cholate and
chenodeoxycholate. The reaction is stimulated by the presence of NAD
+
but is inhibited by excess
NADH. This unusual regulation by the NAD
+
/NADH ratio is most likely the result of the interme-
diates being linked at C-24 by an anhydride bond to the 5
-diphosphate of 3
-phospho-ADP [2,5,6].
Allo-deoxycholate is also formed as a side-product of the 7-dehydroxylation of cholate [955]. The
enzyme is present in intestinal anaerobic bacteria [955], even though its products are important in
mammalian physiology.

. It is composed of two proteins that can be separated but are both required for ni-
trogenase activity. Dinitrogen reductase is a [4Fe-4S] protein, which, with two molecules of ATP
and ferredoxin, generates an electron. The electron is transferred to the other protein, dinitrogenase
(molybdoferredoxin). Dinitrogenase is a molybdenum-iron protein that reduces dinitrogen in three
succesive two-electron reductions from nitrogen to diimine to hydrazine to two molecules of ammo-
nia. The molybdenum may be replaced by vanadium or iron. The reduction is initiated by formation
of hydrogen in stoichiometric amounts [1301]. Acetylene is reduced to ethylene (but only very slowly
to ethane), azide to nitrogen and ammonia, and cyanide to methane and ammonia. In the absence of
a suitable substrate, hydrogen is slowly formed. Ferredoxin may be replaced by avodoxin [see EC
1.19.6.1 nitrogenase (avodoxin)].

O
Systematic name: glutharedoxin:arsenate oxidoreductase
Comments: A molybdoenzyme. The glutaredoxins catalyse glutathione-disulde oxidoreductions and have a
redox-active disulde/dithiol in the active site (-Cys-Pro-Tyr-Cys-) that forms a disulde bond in the
oxidized form [2, 10]. Glutaredoxins have a binding site for glutathione, which is required to reduce
them to the dithiol form [3, 6]. Thioredoxins reduced by NADPH and thioredoxin reductase can act as
alternative substrates. The enzyme [1, 4, 7, 9] is part of a system for detoxifying arsenate. Although
the arsenite formed is more toxic than arsenate, it can be extruded from some bacteria by EC 3.6.3.16,
arsenite-transporting ATPase; in other organisms, arsenite can be methylated by EC 2.1.1.137, arsen-
ite methyltransferase, in a pathway to non-toxic organoarsenical compounds.
