Dimethyl-sulfide monooxygenase (EC 1.14.13.131, dimethylsulfide monooxygenase) is an enzyme with systematic name dimethyl sulfide,NADH:oxygen oxidoreductase.[1] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

dimethyl sulfide + O2 + NADH + H+ [math]\displaystyle{ \rightleftharpoons }[/math] methanethiol + formaldehyde + NAD+ + H2O

Dimethyl-sulfide monooxygenase has lower activity with diethyl sulfide and other short-chain alkyl methyl sulfides.[2][3]
