Germacrene A hydroxylase (EC 1.14.13.123) is an enzyme with systematic name (+)-germacrene-A,NADPH:oxygen oxidoreductase (12-hydroxylating).[1][2] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

(+)-germacrene A + NADPH + H+ + O2 germacra-1(10),4,11(13)-trien-12-ol + NADP+ + H2O

Germacrene A hydroxylase is a heme-thiolate protein (P-450).
