KEGG   ENZYME: 1.2.3.1Help
Entry
EC 1.2.3.1                  Enzyme                                 
Name
aldehyde oxidase;
quinoline oxidase;
retinal oxidase
Class
Oxidoreductases;
Acting on the aldehyde or oxo group of donors;
With oxygen as acceptor
BRITE hierarchy
Sysname
aldehyde:oxygen oxidoreductase
Reaction(IUBMB)
an aldehyde + H2O + O2 = a carboxylate + H2O2 [RN:R00635]
Reaction(KEGG)
Substrate
aldehyde [CPD:C00071];
H2O [CPD:C00001];
O2 [CPD:C00007]
Product
carboxylate [CPD:C00060];
H2O2 [CPD:C00027]
Comment
Contains molybdenum, [2Fe-2S] centres and FAD. The enzyme from liver exhibits a broad substrate specificity, and is involved in the metabolism of xenobiotics, including the oxidation of N-heterocycles and aldehydes and the reduction of N-oxides, nitrosamines, hydroxamic acids, azo dyes, nitropolycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, and sulfoxides [4,6].
The enzyme is also responsible for the oxidation of retinal, an activity that was initially attributed to a distinct enzyme (EC 1.2.3.11, retinal oxidase) [5,7].
Pathway
Valine, leucine and isoleucine degradation
Tyrosine metabolism
Tryptophan metabolism
Vitamin B6 metabolism
Nicotinate and nicotinamide metabolism
Retinol metabolism
Drug metabolism - cytochrome P450
Metabolic pathways
Microbial metabolism in diverse environments
