Product Name (R)-limonene 6-monooxygenase
Example Structure Example Structure of (R)-limonene 6-monooxygenase EC#: 1.14.14.53
Synonyms (+)-limonene 6-monooxygenase, (+)-limonene,NADPH:oxygen oxidoreductase (6-hydroxylating), (+)-limonene-6-hydroxylase, (R)-limonene,NADPH:oxygen oxidoreductase (6-hydroxylating)
EC Number 1.14.14.53
CAS Registry Number 221461-49-0
Comments The reaction is stereospecific with over 95% yield of (+)-trans-carveol from (R)-limonene. (S)-Limonene, the substrate for EC 1.14.14.51, (S)-limonene 6-monooxygenase, is not a substrate. Forms part of the carvone biosynthesis pathway in Carum carvi (caraway) seeds.
Cofactor heme-thiolate
History
Reactions (+)-(R)-limonene + [reduced NADPH–hemoprotein reductase] + O(2) = (+)- trans-carveol + [oxidized NADPH–hemoprotein reductase] + H(2)O.
