Protein
Biflaviolin synthase CYP158A1
Organism
Streptomyces coelicolor (strain ATCC BAA-471 / A3(2) / M145)
Function
Catalyzes oxidative C-C coupling reaction to polymerize flaviolin and form highly conjugated pigments which protect the soil bacterium from deleterious effects of UV irradiation (two isomers of biflaviolin and one triflaviolin).
Similarity
Belongs to the cytochrome P450 family.
