General annotation (Comments)

Function

Catalyzes the synthesis of the phenylpropene eugenol from coniferyl acetate. Phenylpropenes are produced by plants as defense compounds with antimicrobial and antianimal properties, or as floral attractants of pollinators. Eugenol is a characteristic aromatic constituent of spices. Ref.1

Catalytic activity

Eugenol + acetic acid + NADP+ = coniferyl acetate + NADPH. Ref.1

Eugenol + a carboxylate + NADP+ = a coniferyl ester + NADPH. Ref.1

Enzyme regulation

Inhibited by zinc and copper ions. Repressed by 4-bromo-cinnamyl acetate. Ref.1

Pathway

Aromatic compound metabolism; phenylpropanoid biosynthesis.

Tissue specificity

Trichome glands. Ref.1

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the NmrA-type oxidoreductase family.

Biophysicochemical properties

Kinetic parameters:

KM=5.1 mM for coniferyl acetate (at pH 6.5 and 28 degrees Celsius) Ref.1

KM=131 µM for NADPH (at pH 6.5 and 28 degrees Celsius)

Vmax=19.9 nmol/sec/mg enzyme (at pH 6.5 and 28 degrees Celsius)

pH dependence:

Optimum pH is 6.5.
