Protein
Styrene monooxygenase StyA
Organism
Pseudomonas fluorescens
Function
Styrene monooxygenase which catalyzes the first step in the aerobic styrene degradation pathway by enantioselective epoxidation of the vinyl side chain. In a two-component system, StyB reductase utilizes NADH to reduce FAD, which is then transferred to the oxygenase; the electron transfer is proposed to occur via a diffusing flavin.
Similarity
Belongs to the StyA family.
