In enzymology a peptidylglycine monooxygenase (EC 1.14.17.3) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reactionpeptidylglycine + ascorbate + O2 peptidyl(2-hydroxyglycine) + dehydroascorbate + H2OThe 3 substrates of this enzyme are peptidylglycine ascorbate and O2 whereas its 3 products are peptidyl(2-hydroxyglycine) dehydroascorbate 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.
