Production of Hexenol in a Two-Enzyme System: Kinetic Study and Modelling

Abstract
In a two-enzyme system, successive action of hydroperoxide lyase from mint and yeast alcohol-dehydrogenase catalyses the conversion of hydroperoxy linolenic acid to hexenol. Kinetic behaviour was investigated separately for each enzyme: a lumped model based on the Michaelis–Menten approach shows the fate of the reactants in the system.
