Mycobacterium sp. strain JC1 was capable of growth on benzylamine as a sole source of carbon and energy. The primary deamination of benzylamine was mediated by an inducible amine oxidase, which can also oxidize tyramine, histamine, and dopamine. Inhibitor study identified this enzyme as a copper-containing amine oxidase sensitive to semicarbazide.
分枝杆菌属菌株JC1能够以苄胺作为唯一碳源和能源进行生长。苄胺的初步脱氨基作用由一种可诱导的胺氧化酶介导,该酶也能氧化酪胺、组胺和多巴胺。抑制剂研究确定这种酶是一种对氨基脲敏感的含铜胺氧化酶。
