Angelicin synthase (EC 1.14.13.115, CYP71AJ4 (gene)) is an enzyme with systematic name (+)-columbianetin,NADPH:oxygen oxidoreductase.[1] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction:

(+)-columbianetin + NADPH + H+ + O2 angelicin + NADP+ + acetone + 2 H2O

Angelicin synthase is a P450 monooxygenase enzyme.

  1. Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
