BRITE hierarchy
Sysname
(2R)-hydroxy-carboxylate:acceptor oxidoreductase
Reaction(IUBMB)
a (2R)-hydroxy-carboxylate + acceptor = a 2-oxocarboxylate + reduced acceptor [RN:
R07155 ]
Reaction(KEGG)
Substrate
(R)-2-hydroxycarboxylate [CPD:
C02489 ];
acceptor [CPD:
C00028 ]
Product
2-oxocarboxylate [CPD:
C00161 ];
reduced acceptor [CPD:
C00030 ]
Comment
Contains [4Fe-4S] and a mononucleotide molybdenum (pyranopterin) cofactor. Has broad substrate specificity, with 2-oxo-monocarboxylates and 2-oxo-dicarboxylates acting as substrates. Branching in a substrate at the C-3 position results in loss of activity. The enzyme from Proteus sp. is inactivated by oxygen.
