Synonyms: | (-)-limonene 1,2-monooxygenase activity, (-)-limonene,NAD(P)H:oxygen oxidoreductase activity, (S)-limonene 1,2-monooxygenase activity, (S)-limonene,NAD(P)H:oxygen oxidoreductase activity |
Definition: | Catalysis of the reaction: limonene + NAD(P)H + H+ + O2 = NAD(P)+ + H2O + limonene-1,2-epoxide. Can use either (4S)-limonene or (4R)-limonene as substrate. NADPH can act instead of NADH, although more slowly. |
