Cyclopenase is a fungal C-C lyase in quinolone biosynthesis, converting the benzodiazepine structure of (-)-cyclopenine into the quinolone structure viridicatin, releasing methyl isocyanate. It is also active with (-)-4'-methoxycyclopenine. It is found in Aspergillus nidulans. Structurally it is a fungal cytochrome-P450 or enoyl-like cyclopenase.
