Class of enzymes


Paromamine 6'-oxidase (EC 1.1.3.43, btrQ (gene), neoG (gene), kanI (gene), tacB (gene)) is an enzyme with systematic name paromamine:oxygen 6'-oxidoreductase.[1][2][3] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

paromamine + O2 6'-dehydroparomamine + H2O2

This enzymes participates in biosynthesis of several aminocyclitol antibiotics, including kanamycin, butirosin, neomycin and ribostamycin.
