Template:Short description Template:Infobox enzyme Ent-isokaurene C2-hydroxylase (Template:EC number, CYP71Z6) is an enzyme with systematic name ent-isokaurene,NADPH:oxygen oxidoreductase (hydroxylating).[1] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction
- ent-isokaurene + O2 + NADPH + H+ ent-2alpha-hydroxyisokaurene + H2O + NADP+
Ent-isokaurene C2-hydroxylase performs the initial step in the conversion of ent-isokaurene to the antibacterial oryzalides in rice, Oryza sativa.
