title: Aldehyde deformylating oxygenase
text: Aldehyde deformylating oxygenases (ADO) are a family of enzymes which catalyze the oxygenation of medium and long chain aldehydes to alkanes via the removal of a carbonyl group as formate. Aldehyde deformylating oxygenases are found in cyanobacteria as part of the alkane biosynthesis pathway. Their substrates are medium- to long-chain aldehydes formed from acyl-ACP by acyl-ACP reductases, commonly of 16 and 18 carbons, but potentially as short as 9 carbons and 10 carbons.
