Also known as C7916_PRUMU, CYP79D16. Involved in L-phenylalanine-derived cyanogenic glycoside biosynthesis, including prunasin and amygdalin defensive agents (PubMed:25015725). Catalyzes the conversion of L-phenylalanine (Phe) into phenylacetaldoxime (PAOx) (PubMed:25015725). Can not use tyrosine (Tyr), tryptophan (Trp) and valine (Val) as substrates (PubMed:25015725).
