Function | Catalyzes the FAD-dependent oxidative deamination of various amines and D-amino acids to yield the corresponding alpha-keto acids, ammonia/amine, and hydrogen peroxide. Oxidizes sarcosine (N- methylglycine), N-ethylglycine and glycine (PubMed:9827558, PubMed:11744710, PubMed:19864430). Can also oxidize the herbicide glyphosate (N-phosphonomethylglycine) (PubMed:19864430). Displays lower activities on D-alanine, D-valine, D-proline and D-methionine (PubMed:9827558, PubMed:11744710). Does not act on L-amino acids and other D-amino acids (PubMed:9827558). Is essential for thiamine biosynthesis since the oxidation of glycine catalyzed by ThiO generates the glycine imine intermediate (dehydroglycine) required for the biosynthesis of the thiazole ring of thiamine pyrophosphate (PubMed:12627963). |

Background
Glycine oxidase (GO) from Bacillus subtilis (EC 1.4.3.19) is a homotetrameric flavin-dependent oxidoreductase. Each GO monomer is non-covalently bound to flavin adenine dinucleotide. GO catalyzes oxidative deamination of various primary and secondary amines (e.g. glycine, sarcosine, N-ethylglycine) and some D-amino acids (e.g. D -alanine, D -proline, D -valine) to the corresponding α-keto acids and hydrogen peroxide. Primarily, glycine oxidase catalyzes the oxidation of glycine in the biosynthesis of thiamine. The variant H244K shows a higher substrate specificity ratio for glycine versus sarcosine and a 5-fold improved specific activity in comparison to the wild-type.
