| Official Name |
| Berbamunine synthase.
|
| Alternative Name(s) |
| (S)-N-methylcoclaurine oxidase (C-O phenol-coupling). |
| Reaction catalysed |
| (S)-N-methylcoclaurine + (R)-N-methylcoclaurine + NADPH + O(2) <=> berbamunine + NADP(+) + 2 H(2)O |
| Cofactor(s) |
| Heme-thiolate.
|
| Comment(s) |
- Forms the bisbenzylisoquinoline alkaloid berbamunine by phenol
oxidation of N-methylcoclaurine without the incorporation of oxygen
into the product.
- Reaction of 2 molecules of (R)-N-methylcoclaurine gives the dimer
guattagaumerine.
- Formerly EC 1.1.3.34.
