Methanethiol oxidase

This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on a sulfur group of donors with oxygen as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is methanethiol:oxygen oxidoreductase. Other names in common use include methylmercaptan oxidase, methyl mercaptan oxidase, (MM)-oxidase, and MT-oxidase.
