2-Hydroxyisoflavanone synthase
Definition:
EC Tree > 1 Oxidoreductases > 1.14 Acting on paired donors, with incorporation or reduction of molecular oxygen > 1.14.14 With reduced flavin or flavoprotein as one donor, and incorporation of one atom of oxygen into the other donor > 1.14.14.87 2-hydroxyisoflavanone synthase
2-Hydroxyisoflavanone synthase is a plant cytochrome P-450 that rearranges flavanones (2S)-naringenin and liquiritigenin to 2-hydroxyisoflavanones, migrating the 2-phenyl group to C3; the 2-hydroxyl comes from O2, and 2-hydroxyisoflavanone dehydratase (EC 4.2.1.105) then forms genistein/daidzein.
