Structural highlights
FunctionLDI_CASD6 Anaerobically catalyzes the stereospecific hydration of beta-myrcene to (3S)-linalool and the isomerization of (3S)-linalool to geraniol (PubMed:20663876, PubMed:28068311, Ref.8). Is thus involved in the initial steps of the anaerobic degradation of the monoterpene beta-myrcene (PubMed:20663876). Also catalyzes the reverse reactions, i.e. the isomerization of geraniol to linalool and the dehydration of linalool to myrcene (PubMed:20663876, PubMed:28068311, Ref.8). In this direction, the formation of myrcene from geraniol may be seen as a detoxification process for the monoterpene alcohol (PubMed:20663876). Shows a relatively broad substrate specificity and can use various geraniol and linalool derivatives (PubMed:28068311). Substrates required a specific alpha-methylallyl alcohol signature motif (PubMed:28068311). Neither the monoterpenes alpha- and beta-ocimene nor the monoterpenoids citronellol and nerol can be used as substrates (PubMed:20663876).[1] [2] [REFERENCE:8] References
