The enzyme peroxidase behaves as a mixed-function oxidase toward the benzylisoquinoline alkaloid nucleus, giving rise to various phenoxy radicals depending on the substrate.These give either C(4) hydroxylation or C(5') hydroxylation and cyclisation to an aporphine, or cleavage of the C(1)-C(9) bond.
