EC Tree
IUBMB Comments A pyridoxal-phosphate protein. The enzyme cleaves a carbon-sulfur bond, releasing methanethiol and an unstable enamine product that tautomerizes to an imine form, which undergoes a hydrolytic deamination to form 2-oxobutanoate and ammonia. The latter reaction, which can occur spontaneously, can also be catalysed by EC 3.5.99.10, 2-iminobutanoate/2-iminopropanoate deaminase. The enzyme is involved in L-methionine catabolism.
The taxonomic range for the selected organisms is: Trichomonas vaginalis The expected taxonomic range for this enzyme is: Bacteria, Eukaryota, Archaea
