Abstrakt: Bioinformatic analysis and site-directed mutagenesis allowed identification of the determinants of catalysis for CYP74, which are located in the central part of the I-helix and ERR triad. Mutations K302S and T366Y in tomato allene oxide syntase LeAOS3 induced possession of hydroperoxide lyase activity. In contrast to the wild-type MtHPL enzyme that produces C-aldoacid, mutant forms F284I, F287V, G288I, N285A, and N285T of alfalfa hydroperoxide lyase MtHPL synthesized C- and C-fragments. Our data provide evidence that the CYP74 family originated from a common ancestor with hydroperoxide lyase activity. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
