L-tyrosine:hydrogen-peroxide oxidoreductase (L-dopa-forming)
The enzyme from the bacterium Streptomyces lincolnensis participates in the biosynthesis of the antibiotic lincomycin A, while that from Streptomyces refuineus is involved in anthramycin biosynthesis. The enzyme, which contains a heme b cofactor, is rapidly inactivated in the presence of hydrogen peroxide, but the presence of L-tyrosine protects it. cf. EC 1.11.2.5, 3-methyl-L-tyrosine peroxygenase.
