In enzymology, ethanolamine oxidase (EC 1.4.3.8) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
The three substrates of this enzyme are ethanolamine, water, and oxygen. Its products are glycolaldehyde, hydrogen peroxide, and ammonia.[1][2]
This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the CH-NH2 group of donors with oxygen as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is ethanolamine:oxygen oxidoreductase (deaminating). It has cobamide as a cofactor.[1]
