ENZYME entry: EC 1.14.14.31

Accepted Name
ipsdienol synthase
Alternative Name(s)
CYP9T2
CYP9T3
myrcene hydroxylase
Reaction catalysed
beta-myrcene + O2 + reduced [NADPH--hemoprotein reductase] = (4R)-ipsdienol + H(+) + H2O + oxidized [NADPH--hemoprotein reductase]
Comment(s)
  • 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 hydroxylates (+)- and (-)-alpha-pinene, 3-carene, and (+)-limonene, but not alpha-phellandrene, (-)-beta-pinene, gamma- terpinene, or terpinolene.
  • Formerly EC 1.14.13.207.
