Clavaminate synthase

Clavaminate synthase (, clavaminate synthase 2, clavaminic acid synthase) is an enzyme with systematic name deoxyamidinoproclavaminate,2-oxoglutarate:oxygen oxidoreductase (3-hydroxylating). This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction


 * (1) deoxyamidinoproclavaminate + 2-oxoglutarate + O2 $$\rightleftharpoons$$ amidinoproclavaminate + succinate + CO2
 * (2) proclavaminate + 2-oxoglutarate + O2 $$\rightleftharpoons$$ dihydroclavaminate + succinate + CO2 + H2O
 * (3) dihydroclavaminate + 2-oxoglutarate + O2 $$\rightleftharpoons$$ clavaminate + succinate + CO2 + H2O

Clavaminate synthase contains nonheme iron.
