ferruginol [CPD:C09092];
[reduced NADPH---hemoprotein reductase] [CPD:C03024];
O2 [CPD:C00007]

A cytochrome P-450 (heme-thiolate) protein isolated from the plants Salvia pomifera (apple sage) and Salvia miltiorrhiza (danshen). 11-Hydroxyferruginol is a precursor of carnosic acid, a potent antioxidant.
