Abstract
Within the jasmonate branch of oxylipin biosynthesis, there are three enzymes truly committed to the biosynthesis of jasmonic acid: allene oxide synthase, allene oxide cyclase and oxophytodienoate reductase. Crystal structures have recently been solved for these three enzymes providing insights into the biochemistry, the specificity, and the regulation of JA biosynthesis at unprecedented level of detail.
