DE   berbamunine synthase.
AN   (S)-N-methylcoclaurine oxidase (C-O phenol-coupling).
CA   (R)-N-methylcoclaurine + (S)-N-methylcoclaurine + reduced [NADPH-
CA   -hemoprotein reductase] + O2 = berbamunine + oxidized [NADPH--hemoprotein
CA   reductase] + 2 H2O + H(+).
CC   -!- A cytochrome P450 (heme-thiolate) protein found in plants.
CC   -!- Forms the bisbenzylisoquinoline alkaloid berbamunine by phenol
CC       oxidation of N-methylcoclaurine without the incorporation of oxygen
CC       into the product.
CC   -!- Reaction of two molecules of (R)-N-methylcoclaurine gives the dimer
CC       guattagaumerine.
CC   -!- Formerly EC 1.1.3.34 and EC 1.14.21.3.
