IUBMB Enzyme Nomenclature

EC 1.2.99.7

Accepted name: aldehyde dehydrogenase (FAD-independent)

Reaction: an aldehyde + H2O + acceptor = a carboxylate + reduced acceptor

Other name(s): aldehyde oxidase; aldehyde oxidoreductase; Mop; AORDd

Systematic name: aldehyde:acceptor oxidoreductase (FAD-independent)

Comments: Belongs to the xanthine oxidase family of enzymes. The enzyme from Desulfovibrio sp. contains a molybdenum-molybdopterin-cytosine dinucleotide (MCD) complex and two types of [2Fe-2S] cluster per monomer, but does not contain FAD.
