KEGG   ENZYME: 2.6.1.95
Entry
EC 2.6.1.95                 Enzyme                                 
Name
neomycin C transaminase;
neoN (gene name)
Class
Transferases;
Transferring nitrogenous groups;
Transaminases
Sysname
2-oxoglutarate:neomycin C aminotransferase
Reaction(IUBMB)
neomycin C + 2-oxoglutarate = 6'''-deamino-6'''-oxoneomycin C + L-glutamate [RN:R08903]
Reaction(KEGG)
R08903
Substrate
neomycin C [CPD:C15652];
2-oxoglutarate [CPD:C00026]
Product
6'''-deamino-6'''-oxoneomycin C [CPD:C17589];
L-glutamate [CPD:C00025]
Comment
The reaction occurs in vivo in the opposite direction. Involved in the biosynthetic pathway of aminoglycoside antibiotics of the neomycin family. Works in combination with EC 1.1.3.44, 6'''-hydroxyneomycin C oxidase, to replace the 6'''-hydroxy group of 6'''-deamino-6'''-hydroxyneomycin C with an amino group.
The enzyme, characterized from the bacterium Streptomyces fradiae, can also catalyse EC 2.6.1.93, neamine transaminase.
