Biophysicochemical PropertiesKinetic parameters: KM=0.23 uM for coumarin {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11695850, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16086027}; KM=530 uM for 1,4-cineole {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11695850, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16086027}; Vmax=3.5 nmol/min/nmol enzyme toward 2-exo-hydroxy-1,4-cineole {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11695850, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16086027};
Catalytic Activity1,4-cineole + NADPH + O(2) = 2-exo-hydroxy- 1,4-cineole + NADP(+) + H(2)O. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11695850}.
CofactorName=heme; Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:30413;
FunctionExhibits a high coumarin 7-hydroxylase activity. Can act in the hydroxylation of the anti-cancer drugs cyclophosphamide and ifosphamide. Competent in the metabolic activation of aflatoxin B1. Constitutes the major nicotine C-oxidase. Acts as a 1,4- cineole 2-exo-monooxygenase. Possesses low phenacetin O- deethylation activity. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11695850, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16086027, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17125252, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18779312, ECO:0000269|PubMed:1889415, ECO:0000269|PubMed:1944238}.
InductionBy phenobarbital and dexamethasone. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:1889415, ECO:0000269|PubMed:1944238}.
