Description
An Fe(II)-dependent enzyme. Forms the first step in the acetylacetone degradation pathway of Acinetobacter johnsonii. While acetylacetone is by far the best substrate, heptane-3,5-dione, octane-2,4-dione, 2-acetylcyclohexanone and ethyl acetoacetate can also act as substrates.
Form
Liquid or lyophilized powder
Storage
Store it at +4 ºC for short term. For long term storage, store it at -20 ºC~-80 ºC.
Synonyms
Dke1; acetylacetone dioxygenase; diketone cleaving dioxygenase; diketone cleaving enzyme
Reaction
pentane-2,4-dione + O2 = acetate + 2-oxopropanal
