β-amyrin + [reduced NADPH—hemoprotein reductase] + O2 = 16α-hydroxy-β-amyrin + [oxidized NADPH—hemoprotein reductase] + H2O
Other name(s)
CYP87D16
Systematic name
β-amyrin,[reduced NADPH—hemoprotein reductase]:oxygen oxidoreductase (16α-hydroxylating)
Comment
A cytochrome P-450 (heme-thiolate) protein isolated from the plant Maesa lanceolata (false assegai). Involved in the biosynthesis of maesasaponins. It also acts on some derivatives of β-amyrin such as erythrodiol or oleanolic acid.
