Premnaspirodiene oxygenase (, HPO, Hyoscymus muticus premnaspirodiene oxygenase) is an enzyme with systematic name (-)-vetispiradiene,NADPH:oxygen 2alpha-oxidoreductase. It catalyses the following overall chemical reaction:
Premnaspirodiene oxygenase is a cytochrome P450 protein containing heme, isolated from Hyoscyamus muticus. It uses molecular oxygen for the oxidation, which proceeds in two steps via solavetivol, and requires a partner cytochrome P450 reductase for functional expression. This uses nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate.
