1.14.14.151 (+)-valencene + [reduced NADPH-hemoprotein reductase] + O2 enzyme HPO-mediated biohydroxylation of (+)-valencene 1.14.14.151 additional information HPO also catalyzes the equivalent regio-specific (C-2) hydroxylation of several eremophilane-type (decalin ring system) sesquiterpenes, such as with 5-epi-aristolochene 1.14.14.151 additional information co-expression of enzyme HPO and cytochrome P450 reductase (CPR) leads to the hydroxylation of externally added (+)-valencene to trans-nootkatol in Pichia pastoris cells
