Description
A heme-thiolate protein (P-450). This enzyme catalyses two successive N-hydroxylations of L-phenylalanine, the first committed steps in the biosynthesis of benzylglucosinolate. The product of the two hydroxylations, N,N-dihydroxy-L-phenylalanine, is extremely labile and dehydrates spontaneously.The dehydrated product is then subject to a decarboxylation that produces the oxime. It is still not known whether the decarboxylation is spontaneous or catalysed by the enzyme. The product, (E)-phenylacetaldoxime, undergoes a spontaneous isomerization to the (Z) form.
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
phenylalanine N-hydroxylase; CYP79A2
Reaction
L-phenylalanine + 2 O2 + 2 NADPH + 2 H+ = (E)-phenylacetaldoxime + 2 NADP+ + CO2 + 3 H2O (overall reaction); (1a) L-phenylalanine + O2 + NADPH + H+ = N-hydroxy-L-phenylalanine + NADP+ + H2O; (1b) N-hydroxy-L-phenylalanine + O2 + NADPH + H+ = N,N-dihydroxy-L-phenylalanine + NADP+ + H2O; (1c) N,N-dihydroxy-L-phenylalanine = (E)-phenylacetaldoxime + CO2 + H2O
