Betaine
reductase
is an
enzyme
that
catalyzes
the
chemical reaction
The 3
substrates
of this enzyme are
acetyl phosphate
,
trimethylamine
, and
thioredoxin disulfide
,
whereas
its 3
products
are
N,N,N-trimethylglycine
,
phosphate
, and
thioredoxin
.
This enzyme
belongs to
the
family
of
oxidoreductases
,
specifically
those
acting
on X-H and Y-H to form an X-Y
bond
with a
disulfide
as
acceptor
. The
