EC 1.3.3.16

Accepted name: oxazoline dehydrogenase

Reaction: (1) a [protein]-(1S,4R)-2-(C-substituted-aminomethyl)-4-acyl-2-thiazoline + O2 = a [protein]-(S)-2-(C-substituted-aminomethyl)-4-acyl-1,3-thiazole + H2O2
(2) a [protein]-(S,S)-2-(C-substituted-aminomethyl)-4-acyl-2-oxazoline + O2 = a [protein]-(S)-2-(C-substituted-aminomethyl)-4-acyl-1,3-oxazole + H2O2
(3) a [protein]-(S,S)-2-(C-substituted-aminomethyl)-4-acyl-5-methyl-2-oxazoline + O2 = a [protein]-(S)-2-(C-substituted-aminomethyl)-4-acyl-5-methyl-1,3-oxazole + H2O2

Other name(s): azoline oxidase; thiazoline oxidase; cyanobactin oxidase; patG (gene name); mcaG (gene name); artG (gene name); lynG (gene name); tenG (gene name)

Systematic name: a [protein]-2-oxazoline:oxygen oxidoreductase (2-oxazole-forming)

Comments: Contains FMN. This enzyme oxidizes 2-oxazoline, 5-methyl-2-oxazoline, and 2-thiazoline within peptides, which were formed by EC 6.2.2.2, oxazoline synthase, and EC 6.2.2.3, thiazoline synthase, to the respective pyrrole-type rings. The enzyme is found as either a stand-alone protein or as a domain within a multifunctional protein (the G protein) that also functions as a peptidase.
