Function

PILR1_THUPL Reductase involved in lignan biosynthesis. Catalyzes the enantioselective sequential conversion of (-)-pinoresinol into (-)-lariciresinol and of (-)-lariciresinol into (+)-secoisolariciresinol. Can also convert with a lower efficiency (+)-pinoresinol into (+)-lariciresinol, but not (+)-lariciresinol into (-)-secoisolariciresinol. Abstracts the 4R-hydride from the NADPH cofactor during catalysis.[1]
