A heme-thiolate enzyme (P-450) catalysing an oxidative reaction that does not incorporate oxygen into the product. Forms the second methylenedioxy bridge of the protoberberine alkaloid stylopine from oxidative ring closure of adjacent phenolic and methoxy groups of cheilanthifoline.
both CYP719A2 and CYP719A3 have stylopine synthase activity to catalyze methylenedioxy bridge-formation from cheilanthifoline to stylopine, but not cheilanthifoline synthase activity to convert scoulerine to cheilanthifoline, overview
stylopine biosynthesis involves the sequential formation of two methylenedioxy bridges, (S)-stylopine is an important intermediate in the biosynthesis of benzophenanthridine alkaloids, such as sanguinarine
the methylenedioxy bridge-forming enzyme is involved in stylopine biosynthesis in Eschscholzia californica, biosynthetic pathway for a variety of isoquinoline alkaloids, overview
CYP719A2 has high substrate affinity only toward (R,S)-cheilanthifoline, whereas CYP719A3 has high affinity toward the three similar substrates (R,S)-cheilanthifoline, (S)-scoulerine, and (S)-tetrahydrocolumbamine, both show no activity with columbamine, (R,S)-reticuline, (R,S)-norreticuline, (S)-N-methylcoclaurine, (S)-coclaurine, (R,S)-6-O-methylnorlaudanosoline, and magnoflorine, overview

0.43 pmol/min/pmol P450 for the CYP719A2 variant, (R,S)-scoulerine as substrate; CYP719A2 variant uses only (R,S)-cheilanthifoline as substrate to produce stylopine when incubating with a mixture of 0.4 microM (R,S)-cheilanthifoline and 0.4 microM S-scoulerine as substrates; CYP719A3 and CYP719A2 do not react with columbamine, (R,S)-reticuline, (R,S)-norreticuline, (S)-N-methylcoclaurine, (S)-coclaurine, (R,S)-6-O-methylnorlaudanosoline and magnoflorine to make corresponding products with a methylenedioxy bridge; CYP719A3 but not CYP719A2 variant converts (S)-tetrahydrocolumbamine to (S)-tetrahydroberberine; CYP719A3 converts a mixture of 0.4 microM (R,S)-cheilanthifoline and 0.4 microM S-scoulerine as substrates to stylopine and nandinine
