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
Requires Fe2+ and ascorbate. Found in the bacterium Streptomyces kanamyceticus where it is involved in the conversion of the aminoglycoside antibiotic kanamycin B to kanamycin A.
The last step of kanamycin biosynthesis: unique deamination reaction catalyzed by the alpha-ketoglutarate-dependent nonheme iron dioxygenase KanJ and the NADPH-dependent reductase KanK.
