Enantiospecifi c ( S ) - ( + ) - Linalool Formation from β - Myrcene by Linalool Dehydratase - Isomerase
In enzyme-catalyzed processes, the reaction pathway is defi ned by the enzyme and its complex with the substrate. The active site of an enzyme structure determines the interaction with the substrate which often results in high stereospecifi city. Classical examples are the reduction of nicotinamide-adenine-dinucleotides (NAD and NADP) and of aldehydes, the hydration of fumarate, and aldose-keto...
متن کاملLinalool Biotransformation with Fungi
Different fungal strains were screened for their ability to convert linalool into valuable flavour compounds. Aspergillus niger DSM 821, Botrytis cinerea 5901/02 and Botrytis cinerea 02/FBII/2.1 produced isomers of lilac aldehyde and lilac alcohol via 8hydroxylinalool as postulated intermediate. Linalool oxides and 8-hydroxylinalool accumulated as major products during fungal linalool biotransf...
متن کاملStructure and evolution of linalool synthase.
Plant terpene synthases constitute a group of evolutionarily related enzymes. Within this group, however, enzymes that employ two different catalytic mechanisms, and their associated unique domains, are known. We investigated the structure of the gene encoding linalool synthase (LIS), an enzyme that uses geranyl pyrophosphate as a substrate and catalyzes the formation of linalool, an acyclic mo...
متن کاملStructural and functional insights into asymmetric enzymatic dehydration of alkenols.
The asymmetric dehydration of alcohols is an important process for the direct synthesis of alkenes. We report the structure and substrate specificity of the bifunctional linalool dehydratase isomerase (LinD) from the bacterium Castellaniella defragrans that catalyzes in nature the hydration of β-myrcene to linalool and the subsequent isomerization to geraniol. Enzymatic kinetic resolutions of t...
متن کاملCardiovascular effects induced by linalool in normotensive and hypertensive rats.
Linalool is a monoterpene alcohol and constituent of several Brazilian aromatic medicinal plants, popularly used against hypertension. Cardiovascular effects induced by linalool were evaluated. In normotensive rats, (+/-)-linalool [1, 5, 10, and 20 mg/kg body weight (BW); intravenous (i.v.)]-induced hypotension was associated with tachycardia, which was attenuated by atropine (2 mg/kg BW) and N...
