Nitrilotriacetate monooxygenase (EC 1.14.14.10) is an enzyme with systematic name nitrilotriacetate,FMNH2:oxygen oxidoreductase (glyoxylate-forming).[1][2][3] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction
- nitrilotriacetate + FMNH2 + H+ + O2 iminodiacetate + glyoxylate + FMN + H2O
Nitrilotriacetate monooxygenase requires Mg2+.
