Description | Methylamine dehydrogenase is a periplasmic enzyme found in Gram-negative methylotrophs and consists of a heavy chain (large subunit) and a light chain (small subunit), forming a heterotetramer [ ]. It is induced when grown on methylamine as a growth substrate and catalyses the oxidative deamination of primary amines to their corresponding aldehydes. This entry represents the methylamine dehydrogenase heavy chain. | Name | Methylamine dehydrogenase heavy chain |
