ENZYME entry: EC 1.5.3.6

Accepted Name
(R)-6-hydroxynicotine oxidase
Alternative Name(s)
6-hydroxy-D-nicotine oxidase
D-6-hydroxynicotine oxidase
Reaction catalysed
(R)-6-hydroxynicotine + H2O + O2 <=> 6-hydroxypseudooxynicotine + H2O2
Comment(s)
  • The enzyme, which participates in nicotine degradation, is specific for (R) isomer of 6-hydroxynicotine, derived from the uncommon (R)- nicotine.
  • The bacterium Arthrobacter nicotinovorans, in which this enzyme was originally discovered, has a different enzyme that catalyzes a similar reaction with the (S)-isomer (cf. EC 1.5.3.5).
