MetaCyc Pathway: glycine betaine biosynthesis I (Gram-negative bacteria) in Lysobacter sp. OAE881

Add experiment(s):


Choline dehydrogenase:
choline + an oxidized electron carrier→betaine aldehyde + a reduced two electron carrier
(EC 1.1.99.1)
ABIE51_RS16345
Betaine-aldehyde dehydrogenase:
betaine aldehyde + NAD+ + H2O→glycine betaine + NADH + 2 H+
(EC 1.2.1.8)
ABIE51_RS13720

Candidate genes for each reaction are identified from best hits to MetaCyc; by matching EC numbers (which are assigned by TIGRFam, SEED, or best hits to KEGG); or by matching SEED roles to KEGG reactions to MetaCyc reactions. See the "Protein" tab of each gene for more information
