Abstract
The biosynthesis of iridoids, a class of bicyclic monoterpenes, features an atypical cyclization reaction catalyzed by iridoid synthase (ISY). Crystallographic and biochemical characterization of ISY from Catharanthus roseus provides insights into the ISY enzymatic mechanism and highlights similarities with the homologous progesterone 5β-reductase.
