EC 1.14.13.120 Details
EC number
1.14.13.120
Accepted name
costunolide synthase
Reaction
germacra-1(10),4,11(13)-trien-12-oate + NADPH + H+ + O2 = (+)-costunolide + NADP+ + 2 H2O
Systematic name
germacra-1(10),4,11(13)-trien-12-oate,NADPH:oxygen oxidoreductase (6α-hydroxylating)
Comment
A heme-thiolate protein (P-450). The enzyme hydroxylates carbon C-6 of germacra-1(10),4,11(13)-trien-12-oate to give 6α-hydroxygermacra-1(10),4,11(13)-trien-12-oate, which probably spontaneously cyclises to form the lactone ring.
