Structural and Biochemical Characterization of Cinnamoyl-CoA Reductases.

Plant physiology - 1 Feb 2017

Sattler Steven A, Walker Alexander M, Vermerris Wilfred, Sattler Scott E, Kang ChulHee

Abstract excerpt

Cinnamoyl-coenzyme A reductase (CCR) catalyzes the reduction of hydroxycinnamoyl-coenzyme A (CoA) esters using NADPH to produce hydroxycinnamyl aldehyde precursors in lignin synthesis. The catalytic mechanism and substrate specificity of cinnamoyl-CoA reductases from sorghum (Sorghum bicolor), a strategic plant for bioenergy production, were deduced from crystal structures, site-directed mutagenesis, and kinetic...
