BRITE hierarchy
Sysname
oxalate:oxygen oxidoreductase
Reaction(IUBMB)
oxalate + O2 + 2 H+ = 2 CO2 + H2O2 [RN:R00273]
Reaction(KEGG)
Substrate
oxalate [CPD:C00209];
O2 [CPD:C00007];
H+ [CPD:C00080]
Product
CO2 [CPD:C00011];
H2O2 [CPD:C00027]
Comment
Contains Mn2+ as a cofactor. The enzyme is not a flavoprotein as had been thought [3].
Pathway
Glyoxylate and dicarboxylate metabolism
