show Brenda entryEC number
1.14.14.179
Accepted name
brassinosteroid 6-oxygenase
Reaction
6-deoxocastasterone + 2 O2 + 2 [reduced NADPH—hemoprotein reductase] = castasterone + 3 H2O + 2 [oxidized NADPH—hemoprotein reductase] (overall reaction);;(1a) 6-deoxocastasterone + O2 + [reduced NADPH—hemoprotein reductase] = 6α-hydroxy-6-deoxocastasterone + H2O + [oxidized NADPH—hemoprotein reductase];;(1b) 6α-hydroxy-6-deoxocastasterone + O2 + [reduced NADPH—hemoprotein reductase] = castasterone + 2 H2O + [oxidized NADPH—hemoprotein reductase]
Other name(s)
CYP85A1 (gene name),
CYP85A2 (gene name),
brassinosteroid 6-oxidase
Systematic name
6-deoxocastasterone,NADPH—hemoprotein reductase:oxygen 6-oxidoreductase (castasterone-forming)
Comment
This cytochrome P-450 (heme thiolate) plant enzyme catalyses the C-6 hydoxylation of several brassinosteroid biosynthesis intermediates, and the further oxidation of the hydroxyl group to an oxo group. Substrates include 6-deoxocastasterone, 6-deoxotyphasterol, 3-dehydro-6-deoxoteasterone, and 6-deoxoteasterone. The CYP85A2 isozyme of Arabidopsis thaliana (but not the CYP85A1 isozyme) also catalyses the activity of EC 1.14.14.180, brassinolide synthase.
