In enzymology a Watasenia-luciferin 2-monooxygenase (EC 1.13.12.8) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reactionWatasenia luciferin + O2 oxidized Watasenia luciferin + CO2 + hnuThus the two substrates of this enzyme are Watasenia luciferin and O2 whereas its 3 products are oxidized Watasenia luciferin CO2 and hn.This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases specifically those acting on single donors with O2 as oxidant and incorporation of two atoms of oxygen into the substrate (oxygenases).
