In enzymology a phosphatidylcholine 12-monooxygenase (EC 1.14.13.26) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction1-acyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine + NADH + H+ + O2 1-acyl-2-[(S)-12-hydroxyoleoyl]-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine + NAD+ + H2OThe 4 substrates of this enzyme are 1-acyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine NADH H+ and O2 whereas its 3 products are [[1-acyl-2-[(S)-12-hydroxyoleoyl]-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine]] NAD+ and H2O.This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases specifically those acting on paired donors with O2 as oxidant and incorporation or reduction of oxygen.
