abstract
Flavin-N5-oxide is a recently discovered intermediate used by EncM (1,3-diketone oxidation), DszA (sulfone monooxygenase) and RutA (amide monooxygenase). This review describes the mechanism of these enzymes and proposes criteria for the identification of additional Flavin-N5-oxide dependent enzymes.
