In enzymology a linalool 8-monooxygenase (EC 1.14.13.151) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction37-dimethylocta-16-dien-3-ol + AH2 + O2 (E)-37-dimethylocta-16-dien-38-diol + A + H2OThe 3 substrates of this enzyme are 37-dimethylocta-16-dien-3-ol an electron acceptor AH2 and O2 whereas its 3 products are (E)-37-dimethylocta-16-diene-38-diol the reduction product A and H2O.This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases specifically those acting on paired donors with O2 as oxidant and incorporation or reduction of oxygen.
