EC 1.14.14.42     
Accepted name: homomethionine N-monooxygenase
Reaction: an L-polyhomomethionine + 2 [reduced NADPH—hemoprotein reductase] + 2 O2 = an (E)-ω-(methylsulfanyl)alkanal oxime + 2 [oxidized NADPH—hemoprotein reductase] + CO2 + 3 H2O (overall reaction)
(1a) an L-polyhomomethionine + [reduced NADPH—hemoprotein reductase] + O2 = an L-N-hydroxypolyhomomethionine + [oxidized NADPH—hemoprotein reductase] + H2O
(1b) an L-N-hydroxypolyhomomethionine + [reduced NADPH—hemoprotein reductase] + O2 = an L-N,N-dihydroxypolyhomomethionine + [oxidized NADPH—hemoprotein reductase] + H2O
(1c) an L-N,N-dihydroxypolyhomomethionine = an (E)-ω-(methylsulfanyl)alkanal oxime + CO2 + H2O
Glossary: homomethionine = (2S)-2-amino-5-(methylsulfanyl)pentanoate
an L-polyhomomethionine = analogs of L-methionine that contain additional methylene groups in the side chain prior to the sulfur atom.
Other name(s): CYP79F1 (gene name); CYP79F2 (gene name)
Systematic name: L-polyhomomethionine,[NADPH—hemoprotein reductase]:oxygen oxidoreductase
Comments: This plant cytochrome P-450 (heme thiolate) enzyme is involved in methionine-derived aliphatic glucosinolates biosynthesis. It catalyses two successive N-hydroxylations, which are followed by dehydration and decarboxylation. CYP79F1 from Arabidopsis thaliana can metabolize mono-, di-, tri-, tetra-, penta-, and hexahomomethionine to their corresponding aldoximes, while CYP79F2 from the same plant can only metabolize penta- and hexahomomethionine.

EC 2.3.3.17     
Accepted name: methylthioalkylmalate synthase
Reaction: an ω-(methylsulfanyl)-2-oxoalkanoate + acetyl-CoA + H2O = a 2-[ω-(methylsulfanyl)alkyl]malate + CoA

Other name(s): MAM1 (gene name); MAM3 (gene name); acetyl-CoA:ω-(methylthio)-2-oxoalkanoate C-acetyltransferase
Systematic name: acetyl-CoA:ω-(methylsulfanyl)-2-oxoalkanoate C-acetyltransferase
Comments: The enzyme, characterized from the plant Arabidopsis thaliana, is involved in the L-methionine side-chain elongation pathway, forming substrates for the biosynthesis of aliphatic glucosinolates. Two forms are known - MAM1 catalyses only only the first two rounds of methionine chain elongation, while MAM3 catalyses all six cycles, up to formation of L-hexahomomethionine.

EC 4.2.1.170     
Accepted name: 2-(ω-methylthio)alkylmalate dehydratase
Reaction: (1) a 2-[(ω-methylsulfanyl)alkyl]malate = a 2-[(ω-methylsulfanyl)alkyl]maleate + H2O
(2) a 3-[(ω-methylsulfanyl)alkyl]malate = a 2-[(ω-methylsulfanyl)alkyl]maleate + H2O

Other name(s): IPMI (gene name); 2-[(ω-methylthio)alkyl]malate hydro-lyase (2-[(ω-methylthio)alkyl]maleate-forming)
Systematic name: 2-[(ω-methylsulfanyl)alkyl]malate hydro-lyase (2-[(ω-methylsulfanyl)alkyl]maleate-forming)
Comments: The enzyme, characterized from the plant Arabidopsis thaliana, is involved in the L-methionine side-chain elongation pathway, forming substrates for the biosynthesis of aliphatic glucosinolates. By catalysing a dehydration of a 2-[(ω-methylsulfanyl)alkyl]maleate, followed by a hydration at a different position, the enzyme achieves the isomerization of its substrates. The enzyme is a heterodimer comprising a large and a small subunits. The large subunit can also bind to an alternative small subunit, forming EC 4.2.1.33, 3-isopropylmalate dehydratase, which participates in L-leucine biosynthesis.
