The enzyme, characterized from the bacterium Chromobacterium violaceum, participates in the biosynthesis of the violet pigment violacein. The product, protoviolaceinate, can be acted upon by EC 1.14.13.224, violacein synthase, leading to violacein production. However, it is very labile, and in the presence of oxygen can undergo non-enzymic autooxidation to the shunt product proviolacein.

enzyme VioD is a flavin-dependent oxygenase that catalyzes the hydroxylation of the intermediate product prodeoxyviolaceinic acid at the 5-position of one indole ring to yield proviolacein

disruption of vioA or vioB completely abrogates the biosynthesis of violacein intermediates, while disruption of the vioC or vioD genes results in the production of violacein precursors
disruption of vioA or vioB completely abrogates the biosynthesis of violacein intermediates, while disruption of vioC or vioD results in the production of violacein precursors. Gene vioE is essential for violacein biosynthesis. Enzymes VioC and VioD are responsible for the oxygenations at the ox-indole and hydroxyindole, respectively. In the absence of VioC, the expected proviolaceins are accompanied by other compounds: deoxychromoviridans, chromoviridans, and oxychromoviridans

biosynthetic pathway of L-tryptophan to violacein in the wild-type and and deoxyviolacein in the vioD deletion mutant, NMR analysis of reactio products and intermediates, overview
the biosynthesis of violacein from 2 molecules of L-tryptophan requires five contiguously encoded proteins VioA-E. VioC and VioD act sequentially, VioD hydroxylates one indole ring at the 5-position to yield proviolacein, and VioC then acts on the other indole ring at the 2-position to create the oxindole and complete violacein formation. the order of hydroxylation on route to violacein is VioD followed by VioC. L-tryptophan, and not 5-hydroxy-L-tryptophan, is the sole precursor to violacein
the enzyme is involved in the violacein biosynthetic pathway from Chromobacterium violaceum, sequence analysis and functional characterization, overview. The four genes vioABCD are necessary for violacein production
the enzyme is involved in the violacein biosynthetic pathway, which is proposed to consist of the reactions of enzymes VioA -> VioB -> VioE -> VioD -> VioC
violacein, a natural purple secondary metabolite, is sequentially biosynthesized by five enzymes in the following pathway: VioA-VioB-VioE-VioD-VioC. VioD, a flavin-dependent oxygenase, catalyzes the hydroxylation of the intermediate product prodeoxyviolaceinic acid at the 5-position of one indole ring to yield proviolacein
