sarpagine

The enzyme is a cytochrome P450 protein containing heme, isolated from Rauvolfia species. It requires a partner cytochrome P450 reductase for functional expression. This uses nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate. The systematic name of this enzyme class is 10-deoxysarpagine,NADPH:oxygen oxidoreductase (10-hydroxylating). It is also called DOSH. The compounds are indole alkaloids.[1][2]
