EC 1.11.2.3 Details

show Brenda entry

EC number

1.11.2.3

Accepted name

plant seed peroxygenase

Reaction

R¹H + R²OOH = R¹OH + R²OH

Other name(s)

plant peroxygenase, soybean peroxygenase

Systematic name

substrate:hydroperoxide oxidoreductase (RH-hydroxylating or epoxidising)

Comment

A heme protein with calcium binding motif (caleosin-type). Enzymes of this type include membrane-bound proteins found in seeds of different plants. They catalyse the direct transfer of one oxygen atom from an organic hydroperoxide, which is reduced into its corresponding alcohol to a substrate which will be oxidized. Reactions catalysed include hydroxylation, epoxidation and sulfoxidation. Preferred substrate and co-substrate are unsaturated fatty acids and fatty acid hydroperoxides, respectively. Plant seed peroxygenase is involved in the synthesis of cutin.
