Lignostilbene-α,β-dioxygenase A (LsdA) from the bacterium ''Sphingomonas paucimobilis'' TMY1009 is a nonheme iron oxygenase that catalyzes the cleavage of lignostilbene, a compound arising in lignin transformation, to two vanillin molecules. LsdA has greatest substrate specificity for lignostilbene. The substrate's 4-hudryoxy moiety is required for catalysis. Phenylazophenol inhibits the cleavage of lignostilbene by LsdA. | Lignostilbene-α,β-dioxygenase A (LsdA) from the bacterium ''Sphingomonas paucimobilis'' TMY1009 is a nonheme iron oxygenase that catalyzes the cleavage of lignostilbene, a compound arising in lignin transformation, to two vanillin molecules.
