Dichloroarcyriaflavin A synthase (EC 1.13.12.17) is an enzyme with systematic name dichlorochromopyrrolate,NADH:oxygen 2,5-oxidoreductase (dichloroarcyriaflavin A-forming).[1] This enzyme catalyses the following overall chemical reaction:[2]

dichlorochromopyrrolic acid
+ 4 NADH
+ 4 H+
 
 
4 O2
2 CO2
 
 
 
dichloroarcyriaflavin A
+ 4 NAD+
+ 6 H2O
 

The reaction proceeds in two stages. The first protein component, called RebP, is an oxidase which contains heme and uses oxygen and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) to form the new aromatic bond between the indole components, making a six-membered ring.[3] The RebP component then acts with a flavin-dependent partner called RebC to remove the two carboxylic acid groups by oxidative decarboxylation.[4]

The product of the reaction is an indole alkaloid and gives rebeccamycin in a subsequent reaction. The naming of the various proteins involved in its biosynthesis as "RebC" etc describe the overall pathway.[5][6]
