], vanadium-dependent bromoperoxidases [61][62], or methyltransferases [63]).
In addition, enzymes typically classified as tailoring enzymes, such as flavin-dependent monooxygenases [64] and cytochrome P450s (CYPs) [65], were reported to be involved in noncanonicalterpene cyclization. Furthermore, both
