Indolin-2-one monooxygenase (EC 1.14.13.138, BX3 (gene), CYP71C2 (gene)) is an enzyme with systematic name indolin-2-one,NAD(P)H:oxygen oxidoreductase (3-hydroxylating).[1][2] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

indolin-2-one + NAD(P)H + H+ + O2 [math]\displaystyle{ \rightleftharpoons }[/math] 3-hydroxyindolin-2-one + NAD(P)+ + H2O

Indolin-2-one monooxygenase is involved in the biosynthesis of protective and allelopathic benzoxazinoids in some plants.
