Prenylated flavin mononucleotide
text:
Prenylated flavin mononucleotide (prFMN) is a cofactor biosynthesized by the flavin prenyltransferase UbiX and used by UbiD enzymes for reversible decarboxylation reactions. Hence, prFMN is pivotal for catalysis in the ubiquitous microbial UbiD/X system. prFMN is flavin prenylated at the N5 and C6 positions resulting in the formation of a fourth non-aromatic ring. prFMN was discovered in 2015 at the University of Manchester by David Leys' group. Two studies in 2015 characterized UbiX as a flavin
