aurF — Fusarium graminearum PH-1

Summary

FGRAMPH1_01G25803 (aurF) on chromosome 4 of Fusarium graminearum PH-1 encodes a flavin-containing monooxygenase (FMO-like) protein with N,N-dimethylaniline monooxygenase activity, NADP binding, methyltransferase activity, FAD or FADH2 binding, and monooxygenase activity. The gene is associated with the biosynthesis of several secondary metabolites, including fumagillin, (M)-viriditoxin, flavonoids, polyketides, and pigments, as well as alkaloid metabolism and methylation. Its product is linked to extracellular and membrane localisation.
