Glossary:

cyclopeptine = (3S)-3-benzyl-4-methyl-3,4-dihydro-1H-1,4-benzodiazepine-2,5-dione
(–)-cyclopenine = (3S,3′R)-4-methyl-3′-phenyl-1H-spiro[1,4-benzodiazepine-3,2′-oxirane]-2,5-dione

Other name(s):

asqJ (gene name)

Systematic name:

cyclopeptine,2-oxoglutarate:oxygen oxidoreductase ((–)-cyclopenine-forming)

Comments:

This fungal enzyme is involved in the biosynthesis of quinolone compounds. it catalyses two oxidation reactions: the first reaction results in a desaturation; the second reaction is a monooxygenation of the double bond, forming an epoxide. The enzyme is also active with 4′-methoxycyclopeptine.
