Glossary: acireductone = 1,2-dihydroxy-5-(methylsulfanyl)pent-1-en-3-one
Other name(s): ARD; 2-hydroxy-3-keto-5-thiomethylpent-1-ene dioxygenase (ambiguous); acireductone dioxygenase (ambiguous); E-2; 1,2-dihydroxy-5-(methylthio)pent-1-en-3-one:oxygen oxidoreductase (formate- and CO-forming)
Systematic name: 1,2-dihydroxy-5-(methylsulfanyl)pent-1-en-3-one:oxygen oxidoreductase (formate- and CO-forming)
Comments: Requires Ni2+. If iron(II) is bound instead of Ni2+, the reaction catalysed by EC 1.13.11.54, acireductone dioxygenase [iron(II)-requiring], occurs instead [1]. The enzyme from Klebsiella oxytoca (formerly Klebsiella pneumoniae) ATCC strain 8724 is involved in the methionine salvage pathway.
