DE   (S)-limonene 7-monooxygenase.
AN   (-)-limonene 7-monooxygenase.
AN   (-)-limonene hydroxylase.
AN   (-)-limonene monooxygenase.
CA   (4S)-limonene + O2 + reduced [NADPH--hemoprotein reductase] = (4S)-
CA   perillyl alcohol + H(+) + H2O + oxidized [NADPH--hemoprotein reductase].
CC   -!- The enzyme, characterized from the plant Perilla frutescens,
CC       participates in the biosynthesis of perillyl aldehyde, the major
CC       constituent of the essential oil that accumulates in the glandular
CC       trichomes of this plant.
CC   -!- Some forms of the enzyme also catalyze the oxidation of (-)-perillyl
CC       alcohol to (-)-perillyl aldehyde.
CC   -!- Formerly EC 1.14.13.49.
