- FUNCTION: Catalyzes the oxidative deamination of biogenic and xenobiotic amines and has important functions in the metabolism of neuroactive and vasoactive amines in the central nervous system and peripheral tissues. MAOA preferentially oxidizes biogenic amines such as 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT), norepinephrine and epinephrine (By similarity).
- CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: RCH2NH2 + H2O + O2 = RCHO + NH3 + H2O2.
- COFACTOR: FAD.
- SUBUNIT: Monomer, homo- or heterodimer (containing two subunits of similar size). Each subunit contains a covalently bound flavin. Enzymatically active as monomer (By similarity).
- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Mitochondrion outer membrane.
- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the flavin monoamine oxidase family.
