Uracil dehydrogenase
Uracil dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.99.19, uracil oxidase) is an enzyme with systematic name uracil:(acceptor) oxidoreductase.[1] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction
- uracil + acceptor
barbiturate + reduced acceptor
Also oxidizes thymine. The enzyme acts on the hydrated derivative of the substrate.
