Geraniol 8-hydroxylase (EC 1.14.13.152, CYP76B6, G10H, CrG10H, SmG10H) is an enzyme with systematic name geraniol,NADPH:oxygen oxidoreductase (8-hydroxylating). This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

geraniol + NADPH + H⁺ + O₂ ⇌ (6E)-8-hydroxygeraniol + NADP⁺ + H₂O

Geraniol 8-hydroxylase is a cytochrome P450 and therefore requires a partner cytochrome P450 reductase for functional expression.
