Contains a heme b cofactor. The enzyme, characterized from the bacterium Kutzneria sp. 744, is one of very few enzymes known to result in the formation of an N-N bond. (3S)-1,2-diazinane-3-carboxylate (piperazate) is known to be incorporated into assorted secondary products that are produced by nonribosomal peptide synthetase or nonribosomal peptide synthetase/polyketide synthase hybrid pathways, such as the kutznerides, padanamides, himastatins, and sanglifehrins.
