Glycine oxidase

Glycine oxidase is an enzyme with systematic name glycine:oxygen oxidoreductase (deaminating). This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction


 * glycine + H2O + O2 $$\rightleftharpoons$$ glyoxylate + NH3 + H2O2 (overall reaction)
 * (1a) glycine + O2 $$\rightleftharpoons$$ 2-iminoacetate + H2O2
 * (1b) 2-iminoacetate + H2O $$\rightleftharpoons$$ glyoxylate + NH3
