heterotetrameric sarcosine oxidase is a flavoprotein that catalyses the oxidative demethylation of sarcosine to generate glycine, hydrogen peroxide and formaldehyde or 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate, depending on the availability of tetrahydrofolate. The amine proton of sarcosine is transferred to the unprotonated Lys residue in the enzyme-substrate complex |
