The enzyme octopamine dehydratase (EC 4.2.1.87) catalyzes the chemical reaction
- 1-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-2-aminoethanol [math]\displaystyle{ \rightleftharpoons }[/math] (4-hydroxyphenyl)acetaldehyde + NH3
This enzyme belongs to the family of lyases, specifically the hydro-lyases, which cleave carbon-oxygen bonds. The systematic name of this enzyme class is 1-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-2-aminoethanol hydro-lyase [deaminating (4-hydroxyphenyl)acetaldehyde-forming]. Other names in common use include octopamine hydrolyase, and octopamine hydro-lyase (deaminating).
