Pterocarpin synthase
Definition:
EC Tree > 1 Oxidoreductases > 1.1 Acting on the CH-OH group of donors > 1.1.1 With NAD+ or NADP+ as acceptor > 1.1.1.246 pterocarpin synthase
Pterocarpin synthase catalyzes the penultimate step in the biosynthesis of the pterocarpin phytoalexins medicarpin and maackiain. This plant enzyme uses NAD(P)H to reduce the corresponding pterocarpin precursor, yielding medicarpin or maackiain.
