In enzymology an unspecific monooxygenase (EC 1.14.14.1) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reactionRH + reduced flavoprotein + O2 ROH + oxidized flavoprotein + H2OThe 3 substrates of this enzyme are RH (reduced substrate) reduced flavoprotein and O2 whereas its 3 products are ROH (oxidized substrate) oxidized flavoprotein 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.
