A soluble monoterpene primary alc.:NADP+ oxidoreductase has been purified to apparent homogeneity from leaves of the catmint, Nepeta racemosa. The purified enzyme consisted of two polypeptides, with mol. masses of 42,000 and 40,000 Da, and contained zinc ions. A number of monoterpene alcs. (geraniol, nerol, citronellol, and their hydroxylated derivatives) were substrates, but the enzyme was inactive toward ethanol. The enzyme required NADP(H) as cofactor, with NAD(H) being ineffective. Gas chromatog. and coupled mass spectrometric anal. of the reaction products showed that 10-hydroxygeraniol and 10-hydroxynerol were oxidized by the enzyme in the presence of NADP+, at both C-1 and C-10. These results are consistent with a role for this enzyme in the biosynthesis of iridoid monoterpenes. This study involved multiple reactions and reactants, such as (2E,6E)-3,7-Dimethyl-8-oxoocta-2,6-dien-1-yl acetate (cas: 37905-02-5Recommanded Product: 37905-02-5).
(2E,6E)-3,7-Dimethyl-8-oxoocta-2,6-dien-1-yl acetate (cas: 37905-02-5) belongs to esters. Esters perform as high-grade solvents for a broad array of plastics, plasticizers, resins, and lacquers, and are one of the largest classes of synthetic lubricants on the commercial market. Polyesters are important plastics, with monomers linked by ester moieties. Esterification is the general name for a chemical reaction in which two reactants (typically an alcohol and an acid) form an ester as the reaction product. Esters are common in organic chemistry and biological materials.Recommanded Product: 37905-02-5
