2-deoxy-scyllo-inosamine dehydrogenase (SAM-dependent)
Ec Number:1.1.99.38

2-deoxy-scyllo-inosamine dehydrogenase (SAM-dependent) ( (gene)) is an enzyme with systematic name 2-deoxy-scyllo-inosamine:S-adenosyl-L-methionine 1-oxidoreductase.[1] [2] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

\rightleftharpoons

3-amino-2,3-dideoxy-scyllo-inosose + 5'-deoxyadenosine + L-methionine

This enzyme participates in the biosynthetic pathway of the aminoglycoside antibiotics of the butirosin family.
