| Official Name |
|---|
| Acetylacetone-cleaving enzyme.
|
| Alternative Name(s) |
|---|
| Acetylacetone dioxygenase. |
| Diketone cleaving dioxygenase. |
| Diketone cleaving enzyme. |
| Reaction catalysed |
|---|
| Pentane-2,4-dione + O(2) <=> acetate + 2-oxopropanal |
| Cofactor(s) |
|---|
| Iron.
|
| Comment(s) |
|---|
- Forms the first step in the acetylacetone degradation pathway of
Acinetobacter johnsonii.
- While acetylacetone is by far the best substrate, heptane-3,5-dione,
octane-2,4-dione, 2-acetylcyclohexanone and ethyl acetoacetate can
also act as substrates.
