| Accepted name: |
asperlicin C monooxygenase |
| Reaction: |
asperlicin C + NAD(P)H + H+ + O2 = asperlicin E + NAD(P)+ + H2O |
| Other name(s): |
AspB |
| Systematic name: |
asperlicin C,NAD(P)H:oxygen oxidoreductase |
| Comments: |
The enzyme, characterized from the fungus Aspergillus alliaceus, contains an FAD cofactor. The enzyme inserts a hydroxyl group, leading to formation of a N-C bond that creates an additional cycle between the bicyclic indole and the tetracyclic core moieties, resulting in the heptacyclic asperlicin E. |
