ENZYME entry: EC 1.14.19.69

Accepted Name
biflaviolin synthase
Alternative Name(s)
CYP158A2
Reaction catalysed
  • 2 flaviolin + H(+) + O2 + 2 reduced [2Fe-2S]-[ferredoxin] <=> 3,3'-biflaviolin + 2 H2O + 2 oxidized [2Fe-2S]-[ferredoxin]
  • 2 flaviolin + H(+) + O2 + 2 reduced [2Fe-2S]-[ferredoxin] <=> 3,8'-biflaviolin + 2 H2O + 2 oxidized [2Fe-2S]-[ferredoxin]
Comment(s)
  • This cytochrome-P450 (heme-thiolate) enzyme, from the soil-dwelling bacterium Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2), catalyzes a phenol oxidation C-C coupling reaction, which results in the polymerization of flaviolin to form biflaviolin or triflaviolin without the incorporation of oxygen into the product.
  • The products are highly conjugated pigments that protect the bacterium from the deleterious effects of UV irradiation.
  • Formerly EC 1.14.21.7.
