| Other name(s): |
3,1-hydroxyl-Δ1-Δ2-mutase (linalool isomerase) |
| Systematic name: |
(RS)-linalool hydroxymutase |
| Comments: |
Isolated from the bacterium Thauera linaloolentis grown on (RS)-linalool as the sole source of carbon. Unlike EC 5.4.4.4, geraniol isomerase, which only acts on (S)-linalool, this enzyme acts equally well on both enantiomers. |
