heterotetrameric sarcosine oxidase is a flavoprotein that catalyses the oxidative demethylation of sarcosine to generate glycine, hydrogen peroxide and formaldehyde or 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate, depending on the availability of tetrahydrofolate. The amine proton of sarcosine is transferred to the unprotonated Lys residue in the enzyme-substrate complex |

the alpha subunit shows sarcosine oxidase and L-proline dehydrogenase activity, while the beta subunit displays both sarcosine oxidase and L-proline dehydrogenase activity, but not NADH dehydrogenase activity, measurement of L-proline dehydrogenase activity with 2,6-dichloroindophenol as cofactor. Dye-linked NADH dehydrogenase activity is assayed with NADH, FAD and 2,6-dichloroindophenol |
