Comments The enzyme, found in the moth Ostrinia furnacalis (Asian corn borer), produces a mixture of (E)- and (Z)- isomers. The products are subsequently truncated by partial ¦Â-oxidation to a blend of 12(E/Z)-tetradec-12-enoyl-CoA, which are converted to the species-specific sex pheromones (E)- and (Z)-tetradec-12-enoyl acetates.
Cofactor
History
Reactions (1) Palmitoyl-CoA + 2 ferrocytochrome b5 + O(2) + 2 H(+) = (14E)-hexadec- 14-enoyl-CoA + 2 ferricytochrome b5 + 2 H(2)O. (2) Palmitoyl-CoA + 2 ferrocytochrome b5 + O(2) + 2 H(+) = (14Z)-hexadec- 14-enoyl-CoA + 2 ferricytochrome b5 + 2 H(2)O.
