Flavin-containing monooxygenase (FMO) oxygenates drugs/xenobiotics containing a
soft nucleophile through a C4a hydroperoxy-FAD intermediate. Human FMOs 1, 2 and
3, expressed in Sf9 insect microsomes, released 30-50% of O₂ consumed as H₂O₂
upon addition of NADPH. Addition of substrate had little effect on H₂O₂ production.

Mammalian flavin-containing monooxygenase (FMO) is active towards many drugs with a heteroatom having the properties of a soft nucleophile. Thiocarbamides and thiones are S-oxygenated to the sulfenic acid which can either react with glutathione and initiate a redox-cycle or be oxygenated a second time to the unstable sulfinic acid. In...
