Enzymatic -Oxidation

I. ELECTRON CARRIERS IN FATTY ACID AND HYDROCARBON HYDROXYLATION

From the ¹ From the Department of Biological Chemistry, The University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, Michigan 48104

The separation of the soluble -hydroxylation system of Pseudomonas oleovorans into three components is reported in this paper. They have been identified as rubredoxin (a red protein containing nonheme iron but no inorganic sulfide), a diphosphopyridine nucleotide-rubredoxin reductase, and the -hydroxylase. All three proteins are required for the conversion of laurate to -hydroxylaurate or of octane to n-octanol in the presence of Fe⁺⁺ ions, reduced diphosphopyridine nucleotide, and molecular oxygen.
