Riboflavin-5'-phosphate (FMN, for flavin mononucleotide; see formula) was indicated by THEORELL as the original active group.

This was supported by ABRAHAM (1939), who identified both FMN and adenosine­ 5'-phosphate as hydrolysis products of FAD. The discovery of the coenzyme­ role of FAD has induced WARBURGand coworkers to engage in some speculation concerning the possibility that FMN is itself an artifact, produced through a breakdown of FAD. This aspect will be discussed later, in connection with recent work done on OYE in THEORELL'S laboratory. o NH 2 N CH3 .
