Lysine 2-monooxygenase () is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
The two substrates of this enzyme are L-lysine and oxygen. Its products are 5-aminopentanamide, carbon dioxide, and water.
This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on single donors with O<sub>2</sub> as oxidant and incorporation of two atoms of oxygen into the substrate (oxygenases). The oxygen incorporated need not be derived from O with incorporation of one atom of oxygen (internal monooxygenases o internal mixed-function oxidases). The systematic name of this enzyme class is L-lysine:oxygen 2-oxidoreductase (decarboxylating). Other names in common use include lysine oxygenase, lysine monooxygenase, and L-lysine-2-monooxygenase. This enzyme participates in lysine degradation. It employs one cofactor, flavin adenine dinucleotide.
