The seu cyp85A2 double mutants displayed enhanced disruptions of gynoecial and ovule development.
Title: Synergistic disruptions in seuss cyp85A2 double mutants reveal a role for brassinolide synthesis during gynoecium and ovule development.

CYP85A2 catalyzes the lactonization reactions of not only castasterone but also teasterone and typhasterol
Title: Arabidopsis CYP85A2 catalyzes lactonization reactions in the biosynthesis of 2-deoxy-7-oxalactone brassinosteroids.

CYP85A2 is a bifunctional enzyme that possesses BR C-6 oxidase (C-6 oxidation of brassinosteroids) and brassinolide (BL) synthase activity. It is thus a cytochrome P450 that mediates Baeyer-Villiger oxidation in plants. [CYP85A2]
Title: Arabidopsis CYP85A2, a cytochrome P450, mediates the Baeyer-Villiger oxidation of castasterone to brassinolide in brassinosteroid biosynthesis.

investigated the temporal and spatial expression patterns of CYP85A1 and CYP85A2; both promoters of CYP85A1 and CYP85A2 showed maximum activity during the first week following germination, particularly in the vascular tissues
Title: Unique and overlapping expression patterns of Arabidopsis CYP85 genes involved in brassinosteroid C-6 oxidation.
