L-glutamate oxidase


In enzymology, a L-glutamate oxidase is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
The 3 substrates of this enzyme are L-glutamate, O2, and H2O, whereas its 3 products are 2-oxoglutarate, NH3, and H2O2.
This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the CH-NH2 group of donors with oxygen as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is L-glutamate:oxygen oxidoreductase . Other names in common use include glutamate dehydrogenase, glutamate oxidase, glutamic acid oxidase, glutamic dehydrogenase , and L-glutamic acid oxidase. It employs one cofactor, FAD.
