In enzymology a Latia-luciferin monooxygenase (demethylating) (EC 1.14.99.21) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reactionLatia luciferin + AH2 + 2 O2 oxidized Latia luciferin + CO2 + formate + A + H2O + hnuThe 3 substrates of this enzyme are Latia luciferin an electron acceptor AH2 and O2 whereas its 6 products are oxidized Latia luciferin CO2 formate the reduction product A H2O and hn.This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases specifically those acting on paired donors with O2 as oxidant and incorporation or reduction of oxygen.
