Reaction
abieta-7,13-dien-18-ol + 2 [reduced NADPH—hemoprotein reductase] + 2 O2 = abieta-7,13-dien-18-oate + 2 [oxidized NADPH—hemoprotein reductase] + 3 H2O (overall reaction)(1a) abieta-7,13-dien-18-ol + [reduced NADPH—hemoprotein reductase] + O2 = abieta-7,13-dien-18,18-diol + [oxidized NADPH—hemoprotein reductase] + H2O(1b) abieta-7,13-dien-18,18-diol = abieta-7,13-dien-18-al + H2O (spontaneous)(1c) abieta-7,13-dien-18-al + [reduced NADPH—hemoprotein reductase] + O2 = abieta-7,13-dien-18-oate + [oxidized NADPH—hemoprotein reductase] + H2O
Systematic Name
abieta-7,13-dien-18-ol,[reduced NADPH—hemoprotein reductase]:oxygen oxidoreductase (18-hydroxylating)
Function
A cytochrome P-450 (heme-thiolate) protein. This enzyme catalyses a step in the pathway of abietic acid biosynthesis. The activity has been demonstrated in cell-free stem extracts of Abies grandis (grand fir) and Pinus contorta (lodgepole pine), and the gene encoding the enzyme has been identified in Pinus taeda (loblolly pine). The recombinant enzyme catalyses the oxidation of multiple diterpene alcohol and aldehydes, including levopimaradienol, isopimara-7,15-dienol, isopimara-7,15-dienal, dehydroabietadienol and dehydroabietadienal. It is not able to oxidize abietadiene.
Other name
