Description
The enzyme contains Zn2+. The enzyme catalyses the stereoselective synthesis of aliphatic (R)-cyanohydrins. No activity towards mandelonitrile and 4-hydroxymandelonitrile. Natural substrates for the (R)-oxynitrilase from Linum usitatissimum are acetone and butan-2-one, which are the building blocks of the cyanogen glycosides in Linum, linamarin and lotaustralin, or linustatin and neolinustatin, respectively.
Form
Liquid or lyophilized powder

Synonyms
(R)-HNL; (R)-oxynitrilase; (R)-hydroxynitrile lyase; LuHNL
Reaction
(2R)-2-hydroxy-2-methylbutanenitrile = cyanide + butan-2-one
