codeine O-demethylase;
CODM
|
| Class |
Oxidoreductases;
Acting on paired donors, with incorporation or reduction of molecular oxygen;
With 2-oxoglutarate as one donor, and incorporation of one atom of oxygen into each donor
 |
| Sysname |
codeine,2-oxoglutarate:oxygen oxidoreductase (3-O-demethylating)
|
| Reaction(IUBMB) |
codeine + 2-oxoglutarate + O2 = morphine + formaldehyde + succinate + CO2 [RN: R09402]

| Comment |
Requires Fe2+. Catalyses a step in morphine biosynthesis. The enzyme also catalyses the 3-O-demethylation of thebaine to oripavine, with lower efficiency.
