The enzyme, characterized from the bacterium Streptomyces rimosus, participates in the biosynthesis of tetracycline antibiotics. That bacterium possesses two enzymes that can catalyse the reaction - OxyE is the main isozyme, while OxyL has a lower activity. OxyL is bifunctional, and its main function is EC 1.14.13.233, 4-hydroxy-6-methylpretetramide 12a-monooxygenase. Contains FAD.

a gene disruption mutant reveals the complete disappearance of oxytetracycline, with the concomitant appearance of a predominant glycoside metabolite derived from 4-hydroxy-6-methylpretetramid
OxyE plays a nonessential, but important role in oxytetracycline biosynthesis by serving as a efficient C-4 hydroxylase. A gene disruption mutant produces only about 50% of the oxytetracycline found in wild-type, and additionally synthesizes a glycoside derivative of 6-methylpretetramide
