7-Chloro-L-tryptophan oxidase (EC 1.4.3.23, RebO) is an enzyme with systematic name 7-chloro-L-tryptophan:oxygen oxidoreductase.[1] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

7-chloro-L-tryptophan
 
O2
H2O2
O2
H2O2
 
2-iminio-3-(7-chloroindol-3-yl)propionate

The two substrates of this enzyme are 7-chloro-L-tryptophan and oxygen. Its products are 2-iminio-3-(7-chloroindol-3-yl)propionate and hydrogen peroxide. It contains a noncovalently bound flavin adenine dinucleotide. The rection is a step in the biosynthesis of rebeccamycin in the bacterium Lechevalieria aerocolonigenes.[2][3]
