dimethylamine + oxidized [electron-transfer flavoprotein] + H2O + H(+) = methylamine + reduced [electron-transfer flavoprotein] + formaldehyde
N(6)-methyl-L-lysyl(36)-[histone H3] + 2-oxoglutarate + O2 = L-lysyl(36)-[histone H3] + formaldehyde + succinate + CO2
an N-methyl-L-amino acid + O2 + H2O = an L-alpha-amino acid + formaldehyde + H2O2
methanethiol + O2 + H2O = hydrogen sulfide + formaldehyde + H2O2 + H(+)
trimethylamine + oxidized [electron-transfer flavoprotein] + H2O + H(+) = dimethylamine + reduced [electron-transfer flavoprotein] + formaldehyde
vanillate + NADH + O2 + H(+) = 3,4-dihydroxybenzoate + formaldehyde + NAD(+) + H2O
