Paromamine 6'-oxidase

Paromamine 6'-oxidase (, btrQ (gene), neoG (gene), kanI (gene), tacB (gene)) is an enzyme with systematic name paromamine:oxygen 6'-oxidoreductase. This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction


 * paromamine + O2 $$\rightleftharpoons$$ 6'-dehydroparomamine + H2O2

This enzymes participates in biosynthesis of several aminocyclitol antibiotics, including kanamycin, butirosin, neomycin and ribostamycin.
