1.14.14.174 | geranylhydroquinone + [reduced NADPH-hemoprotein reductase] + O2 |
hydroxylation takes place specifically at position 3'', i.e. at the methyl group involved in the cyclization reaction. The reaction velocity obtained with 3-geranyl-4-hydroxybenzoic acid is more than 100 times lower than that obtained with geranylhydro-quinone |
