| Comment(s) |
|---|
- Differs from EC 1.3.3.3 by using S-adenosyl-L-methionine (AdoMet)
instead of oxygen as oxidant.
- Occurs mainly in bacteria, whereas eukaryotes use the oxygen-
dependent oxidase.
- The reaction starts by using an electron from the reduced form of the
enzyme's [4Fe-4S] cluster to split AdoMet into methionine and the
radical 5'-deoxyadenosin-5'-yl; this radical initiates attack on the
2-carboxyethyl groups, leading to their conversion into vinyl groups.
- This conversion, -.CH-CH(2)-COO- -> -CH=CH(2) + CO(2) + e(-) replaces
the electron initially used.
