Identification of enzymes responsible for the reduction of geraniol to citronellol

The reduction of geraniol to citronellol is the first step for the synthesis of natural phytol in the production of tocopherols and natural vitamin K. Baker’s yeast was used in the bioreduction described above as a whole-cell biocatalyst. However, the enzyme responsible for the reduction of geraniol...
