ENZYME entry: EC 3.3.2.8
| Accepted Name |
|---|
| Limonene-1,2-epoxide hydrolase.
|
| Alternative Name(s) |
|---|
| Limonene oxide hydrolase. |
| Reaction catalysed |
|---|
| 1,2-epoxymenth-8-ene + H(2)O <=> menth-8-ene-1,2-diol |
| Comment(s) |
|---|
- Involved in the monoterpene degradation pathway of the actinomycete
Rhodococcus erythropolis.
- The enzyme hydrolyzes several alicyclic and 1-methyl-substituted
epoxides, such as 1-methylcyclohexene oxide, indene oxide and
cyclohexene oxide.
- It differs from the previously described epoxide hydrolases
(EC 3.3.2.4, EC 3.3.2.6, EC 3.3.2.7, EC 3.3.2.9 and EC 3.3.2.10) as
it is not inhibited by 2-bromo-4'-nitroacetophenone, diethyl
pyrocarbonate, 4-fluorochalcone oxide or 1,10-phenanthroline.
