Class Oxidoreductases;
Acting on the CH-NH group of donors;
With other acceptors
BRITE hierarchy
Sysname nicotine:acceptor 6-oxidoreductase (hydroxylating)
Reaction(IUBMB) (S)-nicotine + acceptor + H2O = (S)-6-hydroxynicotine + reduced
acceptor [RN:R02860]
Reaction(KEGG) R02860 > R07946
Show
Substrate (S)-nicotine [CPD:C00745];
acceptor [CPD:C00028];
H2O [CPD:C00001]
Product (S)-6-hydroxynicotine [CPD:C01056];
reduced acceptor [CPD:C00030]
Cofactor Metal [CPD:C00050];
FMN [CPD:C00061]
Comment A metalloprotein (FMN). The enzyme can act on both the naturally
found (S)-enantiomer and the synthetic (R)-enantiomer of nicotine,
with retention of configuration in both cases [4].
