The present invention provides genes, proteins, and cells comprising recombinant methylputrescine oxidase (MPO) from Nicotiana tabacum. The gene and protein may be used to create transgenic plants having altered nicotine and/or alkaloid production, or can be used to identify compounds that affect nicotine and alkaloid production, in plants.
