Glossary:	a 1-(methylsulfanyl)-4-aci-nitroalkane = a hydroxyoxo-λ5-azanylidene-ω-(methylsulfanyl)alkane
Other name(s):	CYP83A1 (gene name); (methylthio)alkanaldoxime N-monooxygenase; (E)-ω-(methylthio)alkananaldoxime,[reduced NADPH—hemoprotein reductase]:oxygen oxidoreductase (N-hydroxylating)
Systematic name:	(E)-ω-(methylsulfanyl)alkananal oxime,[reduced NADPH—hemoprotein reductase]:oxygen oxidoreductase (N-hydroxylating)
Comments:	This cytochrome P-450 (heme thiolate) enzyme is involved in the biosynthesis of glucosinolates in plants. The enzyme catalyses an N-hydroxylation of the E isomer of ω-(methylsulfanyl)alkanal oximes, forming an aci-nitro intermediate that reacts non-enzymically with glutathione to produce an N-alkyl-thiohydroximate adduct, the committed precursor of glucosinolates. In the absence of a thiol compound, the enzyme is suicidal, probably due to interaction of the reactive aci-nitro intermediate with active site residues.
