Abstract
Some properties of enacyloxin (ENX) oxidase from Frateuria sp. [Oyama et al., Biosci. Biotech. Biochem., 58, 1914-1917 (1994)] were studied. The enzyme catalyzed the oxidation of ENX IVa, ENX IIIa, and decarbam oyl ENX IVa, specifically. The optimum pH and temperature for the enzy me activity were pH 9.0 and 60 degrees C, respectively. It is suggeste d that the enzyme is a quinoprotein but its redox cofactor is differen t from pyrroloquinoline quinone.
