With oxygen as acceptor
Sysname
4-methylaminobutanoate methylamidohydrolase
Reaction(IUBMB)
4-methylaminobutanoate + O2 + H2O = succinate semialdehyde + methylamine + H2O2 [RN:R10101]
Reaction(KEGG)
R10101
Substrate
4-methylaminobutanoate;
O2 [CPD:C00007];
H2O [CPD:C00001]
Product
succinate semialdehyde [CPD:C00232];
methylamine [CPD:C00218];
