apical meristem | expression of farnesyl diphosphate synthase takes place in apical and sub-apical cells as well as in mesophyl cells while the three enzymes involved in artemisinin biosynthesis, i.e. amorpha-4,11-diene synthase, amorpha-4,11-diene hydroxylase, a cytochrome P450 monooxygenase, and artemisinic aldehyde DELTA11(13) reductase are expressed only in the apical cells | Artemisia annua | - |

physiological function | the first committed steps in the conversion of farnesyl diphosphate to artemisinin are conducted by amorpha-4,11-diene synthase, amorpha-4,11-diene hydroxylase, a cytochrome P450 monooxygenase, ie. CYP71AV1, and artemisinic aldehyde DELTA11(13) reductase | Artemisia annua |
