Gibberellins (GAs) are a large class of tetracyclic diterpenoid plant hormones that regulate numerous growth and developmental processes, such as seed germination, organ elongation, and flowering induction. All known gibberellins share an ent-gibberellane skeleton and follow the same synthesis pathway. Biosynthesis begins in the plasmids via the terpenoid pathway and finishes in the endoplasmic reticulum and cytosol where they undergo modification until a biologically-active form is reached (GA1, GA3, GA4, or GA7). Gibberellins are named in the order that they are discovered (GA1 through GAn). Serving as a branch point, the first true gibberellin GA12 is used to synthesize the full range of gibberellins by undergoing a multitude of oxidations and cyclizations. Gibberellin A12 biosynthesis, beginning at the chloroplast outer membrane and finishing at the endoplasmic reticulum membrane, comprises of six oxidation steps catalyzed by two membrane-associated multifunctional enzymes of the cytochrome P450 family: ent-kaurene oxidase and ent-kaurenoic acid oxidase. ent-Kaurene oxidase converts ent-kaurene into ent-kaurenoate via three successive oxidations of the 4-methyl group. ent-Kaurenoate oxidase converts ent-kaurenoate into gibberellin A12 via three successive oxidations at carbon positions C-7 and C-6 in gibberellin A12 biosynthesis.
