Name |
trimethylamine-N-oxide reductase;
TMAO reductase;
TOR;
torA (gene name);
torZ (gene name);
bisZ (gene name);
trimethylamine-N-oxide reductase (cytochrome c)
|
Class |
Oxidoreductases;
Acting on other nitrogenous compounds as donors;
With a cytochrome as acceptor
|
Sysname |
trimethylamine:cytochrome c oxidoreductase
|
Reaction(IUBMB) |
trimethylamine + 2 (ferricytochrome c)-subunit + H2O = trimethylamine N-oxide + 2 (ferrocytochrome c)-subunit + 2 H+ [RN: R02560]
|
Reaction(KEGG) |
|
Substrate |
trimethylamine [CPD: C00565];
(ferricytochrome c)-subunit;
H2O [CPD: C00001]
|
Product |
trimethylamine N-oxide [CPD: C01104];
(ferrocytochrome c)-subunit;
H+ [CPD: C00080]
|
Comment |
Contains bis(molybdopterin guanine dinucleotide)molybdenum cofactor. The reductant is a membrane-bound multiheme cytochrome c. Also reduces dimethyl sulfoxide to dimethyl sulfide.
