Allows bacterial pathogens to use the host heme as an iron source. Catalyzes the oxidative degradation of the heme macrocyclic porphyrin ring in the presence of a suitable electron donor such as ascorbate or NADPH--cytochrome P450 reductase, with subsequent release of free iron.

Belongs to the antibiotic biosynthesis monooxygenase family.
