Set of Cytochrome P450s Cooperatively Catalyzes the Synthesis of a Highly Oxidized and Rearranged Diterpene-Class Sordarinane Architecture.

Cytochrome P450s are one of the most versatile oxidases that catalyze significant and unique chemical transformations for the construction of complex structural frameworks during natural product biosynthesis.
