Glossary: mycocyclosin = (1S,14S)-6,9-dihydroxy-15,17-diazatetracyclo[12.2.2.13,7.18,12]icosa-3(20),4,6,8(19),9,11-hexaene-16,18-dione

Other name(s): CYP121; rv2276 (gene name)

Systematic name: cyclo(L-tyrosyl-L-tyrosyl),reduced ferredoxin:oxygen oxidoreductase (diarylbridge-forming)

Comments: A cytochrome P-450 (heme-thiolate) protein from the bacterium Mycobacterium tuberculosis catalysing an oxidative reaction that does not incorporate oxygen into the product.
