Description
This cytochrome-P-450 enzyme, from the soil-dwelling bacterium Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2), catalyses 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.
Form
Liquid or lyophilized powder
Storage
Store it at +4 ºC for short term. For long term storage, store it at -20 ºC～-80 ºC.
Synonyms
CYP158A2; CYP 158A2; cytochrome P450 158A2
Reaction
(1) 2 flaviolin + NADPH + H+ + O2 = 3,3'-biflaviolin + NADP+ + 2 H2O; (2) 2 flaviolin + NADPH + H+ + O2 = 3,8'-biflaviolin + NADP+ + 2 H2O
