monooxygenase

All the enzymes that are involved in biological oxidation belong to the class oxidoreductases. In biochemistry, an oxidoreductase is an enzyme that catalyzes the transfer of electrons from one molecule called the reductant, also known as the electron donor, to another called the oxidant ( also known as the electron acceptor). These are further categorized into four groups. A) Oxidases B) Dehydrogenases C) Hydroperoxidases D) Oxygenases … Read more
