| Mp1g20080 | MpDBR | experimental subject | Double bond reductase of the bisbibenzyl pathway, stated as Mp1g20080 and induced by UV-C, which also induces bisbibenzyl accumulation. The recombinant enzyme reduces the double bond of p-coumaraldehyde. Mpdbr knockouts show wilting and brown thalli, accumulate p-coumaric acid and have reduced lunularic acid and bisbibenzyls, identifying it as the major DBR of the pathway. |
