Albendazole monooxygenase (EC 1.14.13.32) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
The four substrates of this enzyme are albendazole, reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH), oxygen and a proton. Its products are ricobendazole (albendazole S-oxide), oxidised NADP+, and water.[1][2][3]
This enzyme is coded by the gene for FMO3[1] and is a flavin-containing monooxygenase that uses molecular oxygen as oxidant and incorporates one of its atoms into the starting material. The systematic name of this enzyme class is albendazole,NADPH:oxygen oxidoreductase (sulfoxide-forming). Other names in common use include albendazole oxidase, and albendazole sulfoxidase. It employs one cofactor, flavin adenine dinucleotide.[1]

A similar oxidation is carried out by EC 1.14.14.73, albendazole monooxygenase (sulfoxide-forming), which in humans is known to be carried out by CYP3A4 and CYP2J2.[3][4]
