| Accepted name: |
protoasukamycin 4-monooxygenase |
| Reaction: |
protoasukamycin + NADH + H+ + O2 = 4-hydroxyprotoasukamycin + NAD+ + H2O |
| Glossary: |
asuE1 (gene name) |
| Systematic name: |
protoasukamycin,NADH:oxygen oxidoreductase (4-hydroxylating) |
| Comments: |
The enzyme, characterized from the bacterium Streptomyces nodosus subsp. asukaensis, is involved in the biosynthesis of the antibiotic asukamycin. Requires a flavin cofactor, with no preference among FMN, FAD or riboflavin. When flavin concentration is low, activity is enhanced by the presence of the NADH-dependent flavin-reductase AsuE2. |
