Abstract

A method of producing promorphinan, morphinan, nal-opioid, and nor-opioid alkaloid products through the increased conversion of a promorphinan alkaloid to a morphinan alkaloid. The method comprises contacting the promorphinan alkaloid with at least one enzyme. Contacting the promorphinan alkaloid with the at least one enzyme converts the promorphinan alkaloid to a morphinan alkaloid.
