dimethylallyl-phosphate:FMNH2 prenyltransferase

dimethylallyl phosphate + FMNH2 = prenylated FMNH2 + phosphate [RN:R11225]

R11225
Reaction

dimethylallyl phosphate [CPD:C21214];
FMNH2 [CPD:C01847]

The enzyme produces the modified flavin cofactor prenylated FMNH2, which is required by EC 4.1.1.98, 4-hydroxy-3-polyprenylbenzoate decarboxylase, and EC 4.1.1.102, phenacrylate decarboxylase. The enzyme acts as a flavin prenyltransferase, linking a dimethylallyl moiety to the flavin N-5 and C-6 atoms and thus adding a fourth non-aromatic ring to the flavin isoalloxazine group.
