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.

the enzyme performs oxidative C-H bond cleavage at C5 to generate 3-chloro-5-hydroxyl-L-tyrosine and oxygenation at C3 concomitant with a carbon-fluorine bond cleavage to yield L-dopa and chloride
