Cytokinin dehydrogenase
Template:Infobox enzyme In enzymology, a cytokinin dehydrogenase (EC 1.5.99.12) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
- N6-dimethylallyladenine + electron acceptor + H2O adenine + 3-methylbut-2-enal + reduced acceptor
The 3 substrates of this enzyme are cytokinin (here represented by N6-dimethylallyladenine), electron acceptor, and H2O, whereas its 3 products are adenine, 3-methylbut-2-enal (or other aldehyde in case of different substrate), and reduced acceptor.
This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the CH-NH group of donors with other acceptors. The systematic name of this enzyme class is N6-dimethylallyladenine:acceptor oxidoreductase. Other names in common use include N6-dimethylallyladenine:(acceptor) oxidoreductase, 6-N-dimethylallyladenine:acceptor oxidoreductase, and cytokinin oxidase/dehydrogenase abbreviated as CKX.
