Miscellaneous
Sysname
L-tryptophan:oxygen 2'-oxidoreductase (side-chain-cleaving)
Reaction(IUBMB)
L-tryptophan + O2 = (indol-3-yl)glycolaldehyde + CO2 + NH3 [RN:R00681]
Reaction(KEGG)
R00681
Substrate
L-tryptophan [CPD:C00078];
O2 [CPD:C00007]
Product
(indol-3-yl)glycolaldehyde [CPD:C03230];
CO2 [CPD:C00011];
NH3 [CPD:C00014]
Comment
A hemoprotein. Acts on a number of indole-3-alkane derivatives, oxidizing the 3-side-chain in the 2'-position. Best substrates were L-tryptophan and 5-hydroxy-L-tryptophan.
