At2g38050818383DET2 (DE-ETIOLATED 2)Similar to mammalian steroid-5-alpha-reductase. Involved in the brassinolide biosynthetic pathway.O.I.H.G.
At3g13730820582CYP90D1Encodes a cytochrome P-450 gene that is involved in brassinosteroid biosynthesis, most likely in the conversion step of teasterone (TE) to 3-dehydroteasterone (3DT), and/or 6-deoxoteasterone (6-deoxoTE) to 6-deoxo-3-dehydroteasterone (6-deoxo3DT); or the conversion of cathasterone (CT) to TE, and/or 6-deoxocathasterone (6-deoxoCT) to 6-deoxoTE. Recently, CYP90D1 was shown to catalyse the C-23 hydroxylation of several brassinosteroids (the enzyme has a broad specificity for 22-hydroxylated substrates). Member of the CYP90C CYP450 family. Similar to Cytochrome P450 90C1 (ROT3).O.I.H.G.
At3g30180822709BR6OX2 (BRASSINOSTEROID-6-OXIDASE 2)Encodes a cytochrome p450 enzyme that catalyzes the last reaction in the production of brassinolide. It is capable of converting 6-deoxocastasterone into castasterone, a C-6 oxidation, as well as the further conversion of castasterone into brassinolide by a Baeyer-Villinger oxidation reaction at C-6, resulting in the formation of an unusual seven-membered lactone ring. The enzyme possesses high affinity for both C28- and C27-Brassinosteroids. The expression of the gene using a CYP85A2 promoter:LUC fusion construct was shown to be under circadian and light control.O.I.H.G.
At3g50660824229DWF4 (DWARF 4)Encodes a 22α hydroxylase whose reaction is a rate-limiting step in brassinosteroid biosynthetic pathway. The protein is a member of CYP90B gene family. CLM is an epi-allele with small, compressed rosette, reduced internode length, and reduced fertility, appears in selfed ddm mutant plants possibly due to loss of cytosine methylation. Transcripts accumulate in actively growing tissues, and GUS expression is negatively regulated by brassinosteroids. Localized in the endoplasmic reticulum. The in vitro expressed protein can perform the C-22 hydroxylation of a variety of C27-, C28- and C29-sterols. Cholesterol was the best substrate, followed by campesterol. Sitosterol was a poor substrate.O.I.H.G.
At4g36380829790ROT3 (ROTUNDIFOLIA 3)Encodes a cytochrome P-450 gene that is involved in leaf blade expansion by controlling polar cell expansion in the leaf length direction. Member of the CYP90C CYP450 family. ROT3 was shown to be involved in brassinosteroid biosynthesis, most likely in the conversion step of typhasterol (TY) to castasterone (CS). As 6-deoxo-CS was unable to restore the phenotype of rot3-1, it has been postulated that ROT3 might be specifically involved in the conversion of TY to CS in the C6-oxidation pathway of brassinolide. Recently, CYP90C1 was shown to catalyse the C-23 hydroxylation of several brassinosteroids (the enzyme has a broad specificity for 22-hydroxylated substrates).O.I.H.G.
At5g38970833889BR6OX1 (BRASSINOSTEROID-6-OXIDASE 1)Encodes a polypeptide involved in the C-6 oxidation of brassinosteroids. Heterologous expression of the protein in yeast conferred the ability to catalyze multiple reactions in which the C-6 position of 6-deoxocastasterone, 6-deoxotyphasterol, 3-dehydro-6-deoxoteasterone and 6-deoxoteasterone are oxidized.O.I.H.G.
