BRITE hierarchy
Sysname
sarcosine, 5,6,7,8-tetrahydrofolate:electron-transferflavoprotein oxidoreductase (demethylating,5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate-forming)
Reaction(IUBMB)
sarcosine + 5,6,7,8-tetrahydrofolate + oxidized [electron-transfer flavoprotein] = glycine + 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate + reduced [electron-transfer flavoprotein] [RN:
R00611 ]
Reaction(KEGG)
Substrate
sarcosine [CPD:
C00213 ];
5,6,7,8-tetrahydrofolate [CPD:
C00101 ];
oxidized [electron-transfer flavoprotein] [CPD:
C04253 ]
Product
glycine [CPD:
C00037 ];
5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate [CPD:
C00143 ];
reduced electron-transfer flavoprotein [CPD:
C04570 ]
Comment
A flavoprotein (FMN) found in eukaryotes. In the absence of tetrahydrofolate the enzyme produces formaldehyde. cf. EC
1.5.3.1 , sarcosine oxidase (formaldehyde-forming), and EC
1.5.3.24 , sarcosine oxidase (5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate-forming).
History
EC 1.5.8.3 created 1972 as EC 1.5.99.1, transferred 2012 to EC 1.5.8.3, modified 2022
Pathway
ec00260 Glycine, serine and threonine metabolism
Orthology
K00314 sarcosine dehydrogenase
