Systematic name: |
(4-hydroxyphenyl)ethan-1-one,NADPH:oxygen oxidoreductase (ester-forming) |
Comments: |
Contains FAD. The enzyme from Pseudomonas fluorescens ACB catalyses the conversion of a wide range of acetophenone derivatives. Highest activity occurs with compounds bearing an electron-donating substituent at the para position of the aromatic ring [1]. In the absence of substrate, the enzyme can act as an NAD(P)H oxidase (EC 1.6.3.1). |
