EC 1.1.1.318 Details
EC number
1.1.1.318
Accepted name
eugenol synthase
Reaction
eugenol + a carboxylate + NADP+ = a coniferyl ester + NADPH + H+
Other name(s)
LtCES1, EGS1, EGS2
Systematic name
eugenol:NADP+ oxidoreductase (coniferyl ester reducing)
Comment
The enzyme acts in the opposite direction. The enzymes from the plants Ocimum basilicum (sweet basil) [1,3], Clarkia breweri and Petunia hybrida [4] only accept coniferyl acetate and form eugenol. The enzyme from Pimpinella anisum (anise) forms anol (from 4-coumaryl acetate) in vivo, although the recombinant enzyme can form eugenol from coniferyl acetate [5]. The enzyme from Larrea tridentata (creosote bush) also forms chavicol from a coumaryl ester and can use NADH [2].
