Eugenol synthase (EC 1.1.1.318, LtCES1, EGS1, EGS2) is an enzyme with systematic name eugenol:NADP+ oxidoreductase (coniferyl ester reducing). This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction: eugenol + a carboxylate + NADP+
⇌
{\displaystyle \rightleftharpoons }
a coniferyl ester + NADPH + H+
The enzyme acts in the reverse direction.
