Description
A cytochrome P-450 heme-thiolate protein. Involved in the insect aggregation pheromone production. Isolated from the pine engraver beetle, Ips pini. A small amount of (S)-ipsdienol is also formed. In vitro it also hydroxylated (+)- and (–)-α-pinene, 3-carene, and (+)-limonene, but not α-phellandrene, (–)-β-pinene, γ-terpinene, or terpinolene.
Form
Liquid or lyophilized powder
Storage
Store it at +4 ºC for short term. For long term storage, store it at -20 ºC~-80 ºC.
Synonyms
myrcene hydroxylase; CYP9T2; CYP9T3
Reaction
myrcene + [reduced NADPH-hemoprotein reductase] + O2 = (R)-ipsdienol + [oxidized NADPH-hemoprotein reductase] + H2O
