Function | Catalyzes the oxidative deamination of primary and some secondary amines such as neurotransmitters, and exogenous amines including the tertiary amine, neurotoxin 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6- tetrahydropyridine (MPTP), with concomitant reduction of oxygen to hydrogen peroxide and participates in the metabolism of neuroactive and vasoactive amines in the central nervous system and peripheral tissues (PubMed:11134050, PubMed:8665924, PubMed:8316221, PubMed:11049757, PubMed:20493079). Preferentially degrades benzylamine and phenylethylamine (PubMed:11134050, PubMed:8665924, PubMed:8316221, PubMed:11049757, PubMed:20493079). |
Cellular Location | Mitochondrion outer membrane; Single-pass type IV membrane protein; Cytoplasmic side |

Background
MAOB belongs to the flavin monoamine oxidase family. This protein is a enzyme located in the mitochondrial outer membrane. The protein catalyzes the oxidative deamination of biogenic and xenobiotic amines and plays an important role in the metabolism of neuroactive and vasoactive amines in the central nervous sysytem and peripheral tissues. The protein preferentially degrades benzylamine and phenylethylamine.
