Indolin-2-one monooxygenase (, BX3 (gene), CYP71C2 (gene)) is an enzyme with systematic name indolin-2-one,NAD(P)H:oxygen oxidoreductase (3-hydroxylating). It catalyses the following chemical reaction:
Indolin-2-one monooxygenase is a cytochrome P450 protein containing heme, isolated from Poaceae (grasses). It uses molecular oxygen for the oxidation and requires a partner cytochrome P450 reductase for functional expression. This uses nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate. It is involved in the biosynthesis of protective and allelopathic benzoxazinoids in some plants.
