Glossary: 2-hydroxy-2H-1,4-benzoxazin-3(4H)-one = HBOA

Other name(s): BX4 (gene name); CYP71C1 (gene name)

Systematic name: 3-hydroxyindolin-2-one,[reduced NADPH—hemoprotein reductase]:oxygen oxidoreductase (2-hydroxy-2H-1,4-benzoxazin-3(4H)-one-forming)

Comments: A cytochrome P-450 (heme-thiolate) protein. The enzyme is involved in the biosynthesis of protective and allelophatic benzoxazinoids in some plants, most commonly from the family of Poaceae (grasses).
