Abstract
The fungal P450s catalyze vital monooxygenation reactions in primary and secondary metabolism, which may lead to the production of diverse secondary metabolites. Many of these, such as from the family of trichothecenes, involve in biocontrol activities. The diversified nature of fungal P450 monooxygenases makes their host organisms adoptable to various ecological niches. The available genome data analysis provided an insight into the activity and mechanisms of the fungal P450s. However, still more structural and functional studies are needed to elucidate the details of its catalytic mechanism, and the advance studies are also required to decipher further about their dynamic role in various aspects of trichothecene oxygenations. This mini review will provide updated information on different fungal P450 monooxygenases, their genetic diversity, and their role in catalyzing various biochemical reactions leading to the production of plant growth promoting secondary metabolites.
