Partially purified preparations from Aspergillus nidulans were shown to catalyze two alpha-ketoglutarate dependent dioxygenase reactions: the pyrimidine deoxyribonucleoside 2'-hydroxylase (EC 1.14.11.3) and the thymine 7-hydroxylase (EC 1.14.11.6) reactions. These reactions showed an absolute requirement for alpha-ketoglutarate and molecular oxygen and were stimulated by Fe(II), ascorbate and catalase. Both reactions demonstrated a stoichiometry such that for each mole of substrate… Expand
