Abstract

12-Oxo-phytodienoic acid (OPDA) is an important metabolite on the octadecanoid pathway of plants. This study shows an efficient in vitro synthesis of (+)-cis-OPDA by using a flaxseed extract and an allene oxide cyclase. The OPDA yield of the reaction in this study was almost 7-fold higher than that in the conventional reaction with the flaxseed extract.
