DE   L-ornithine N(5)-monooxygenase (NADPH).
AN   ornithine hydroxylase.
CA   L-ornithine + NADPH + O2 = H2O + N(5)-hydroxy-L-ornithine + NADP(+).
CC   -!- The enzyme is involved in biosynthesis of N(5)-hydroxy-L-ornithine,
CC       N(5)-formyl-N(5)-hydroxy-L-ornithine or N(5)-acetyl-N(5)-hydroxy-L-
CC       ornithine.
CC   -!- These nonproteinogenic amino acids are building blocks of
CC       siderophores produced by some bacteria (e.g. Streptomyces coelicolor,
CC       Saccharopolyspora erythraea and Pseudomonas aeruginosa).
CC   -!- The enzyme is specific for NADPH. cf. EC 1.14.13.196.
