    摘要: The present invention provides the nucleic acid and the amino acid sequences of a cytochrome P450 capable of oxidizing terpene molecules. It also provides a method of oxidizing terpene molecules comprising contacting the cytochrome P450 of the invention with the terpene molecule intended to be oxidized. In particular, said method may be carried out in vitro or in vivo to produce oxidized terpene molecules, which may be used in different technical fields such as for example perfumery and flavoring. The present invention also provides an expression vector containing the nucleic acid. A non-human host organism or a cell transformed with the nucleic acid is also an object of the invention.
