(S)-2-hydroxypropylphosphonic acid epoxidase

(S)-2-hydroxypropylphosphonic acid epoxidase (, HPP epoxidase, HppE, 2-hydroxypropylphosphonic acid epoxidase, Fom4, (S)-2-hydroxypropylphosphonate epoxidase) is an enzyme with systematic name (S)-2-hydroxypropylphosphonate,NADH:oxygen epoxidase. This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction


 * (S)-2-hydroxypropylphosphonate + NADH + H+ + O2 $$\rightleftharpoons$$ (1R,2S)-epoxypropylphosphonate + NAD+ + 2 H2O

(S)-2-hydroxypropylphosphonic acid epoxidase contains one non-heme iron centre per monomer.
