Abstract

A large number of reactions in hormone biosynthesis and catabolism pathways are located in theendoplasmic reticulum (ER). These reactions are catalysed by cytochrome P450s, a large family of enzymesinvolved in many metabolic pathways in plants. As well as being involved in hormone synthesis and inactivation,many of the P450s involved in hormone biology are likely to be under regulation both to maintain hormonehomeostasis and in response to environmental signals. This chapter describes the roles of the ER-locatedP450 enzymes in plant hormone biology.
