Description
A flavoprotein (FAD). The enzyme is involved in biosynthesis of N5-hydroxy-L-ornithine, N5-formyl-N5-hydroxy-L-ornithine or N5-acetyl-N5-hydroxy-L-ornithine. These nonproteinogenic amino acids are building blocks of siderophores produced by some bacteria (e.g. Streptomyces coelicolor, Saccharopolyspora erythraea and Pseudomonas aeruginosa). The enzyme is specific for NADPH. cf. EC 1.14.13.196, L-ornithine N5-monooxygenase [NAD(P)H].
Form
Liquid or lyophilized powder

Synonyms
CchB; ornithine hydroxylase; EtcB; PvdA; Af-OMO; dffA (gene name)
Reaction
