FAD-AMP lyase (cyclizing) requires Mn2+ or Co2+. FAD is the best substrate, but the enzyme also splits ribonucleoside-diphosphate-X compounds in which X is an acyclic or cyclic monosaccharide derivative bearing an X-OH group that can attack the proximal phosphorus with the geometry needed to form a P=X product (either a five-atom monocyclic phosphodiester or a cis-bicyclic phosphodiester-pyranose fusion). The reaction is strongly inhibited by ADP or ATP. It converts FAD into AMP and riboflavin cyclic-4',5'-phosphate. Structurally it is a cyclizing FAD lyase.
