In enzymology a deacetoxycephalosporin-C synthase (EC 1.14.20.1) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reactionpenicillin N + 2-oxoglutarate + O2 deacetoxycephalosporin C + succinate + CO2 + H2OThe 3 substrates of this enzyme are penicillin N 2-oxoglutarate and O2 whereas its 4 products are deacetoxycephalosporin C succinate CO2 and H2O.This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases specifically those acting on paired donors with O2 as oxidant and incorporation or reduction of oxygen.
