The four substrates of this enzyme are 1-deoxy-11-oxopentalenic acid, reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH), oxygen, and a proton. It products are pentalenolactone D, oxidised NADP+, and water.[2] The starting ketone is made as part of the biosynthetic pathway to pentalenolactone in Streptomyces avermitilis.[3]

The enzyme is a Baeyer-Villiger monooxygenase that uses flavin adenine dinucleotide as a cofactor.[1]
