Flavocytochrome b(2) (Arg289Lys mutant) from ''Saccharomyces cerevisiae'' is an oxidoreductase that couples dehydrogenation of L-lactate to cytochrome c reduction by electron transfer. It is one step of the bacterial lactate metabolic pathway.

Similar oxidants that can be used to perform the reaction in vitro are ferricyanide, phenozine methosulfate and quinone [experiment first performed 1963 by Nygaard, later in 1966 described by Symons and Burgoyne].
