1.4.3.19

Accepted name:

glycine oxidase

Reaction:

glycine + H₂O + O₂ = glyoxylate + NH₃ + H₂O₂ (overall reaction)
(1a) glycine + O₂ = 2-iminoacetate + H₂O₂
(1b) 2-iminoacetate + H₂O = glyoxylate + NH₃

Systematic name:

glycine:oxygen oxidoreductase (deaminating)

Comments:

A flavoenzyme containing non-covalently bound FAD. The enzyme from Bacillus subtilis is active with glycine, sarcosine, N-ethylglycine, D-alanine, D-α-aminobutyrate, D-proline, D-pipecolate and N-methyl-D-alanine. It differs from EC 1.4.3.3, D-amino-acid oxidase, due to its activity on sarcosine and D-pipecolate. The intermediate 2-iminoacetate is used directly by EC 2.8.1.10, thiazole synthase.
