EC 1.3.8.17

Accepted name: dehydro coenzyme F420 reductase

Reaction: oxidized coenzyme F420-0 + FMN = dehydro coenzyme F420-0 + FMNH2

Glossary: dehydro coenzyme F420-0 = 2-{[5-deoxy-5-(8-hydroxy-2,4-dioxopyrimidino[4,5-b]quinolin-10(2H)-yl)-L-ribityloxy]hydroxyphosphoryloxy}prop-2-enoate

Other name(s): fbiB (gene name)

Systematic name: oxidized coenzyme F420-0:FMN oxidoreductase

Comments: This enzyme is involved in the biosynthesis of coenzyme F420, a redox-active cofactor found in all methanogenic archaea, as well as some eubacteria. In some eubacteria the enzyme is multifunctional, also catalysing the activities of EC 6.3.2.31, coenzyme F420-0:L-glutamate ligase, and EC 6.3.2.34, coenzyme F420-1:γ-L-glutamate ligase.
