EC 1.14.13.154     
Accepted name: erythromycin 12-hydroxylase
Reaction: erythromycin D + NADPH + H+ + O2 = erythromycin C + NADP+ + H2O
For diagram of erythromycin biosynthesis, click here
Other name(s): EryK
Systematic name: erythromycin-D,NADPH:oxygen oxidoreductase (12-hydroxylating)
Comments: The enzyme is responsible for the C-12 hydroxylation of the macrolactone ring, one of the last steps in erythromycin biosynthesis. It shows 1200-1900-fold preference for erythromycin D over the alternative substrate erythromycin B [1].
