ANTHOCYANIDIN SYNTHASE FROM ARABIDOPSIS THALIANA COMPLEXED WITH NARINGENIN

Overview

During the biosynthesis of the tricyclic flavonoid natural products in, plants, oxidative modifications to the central C-ring are catalysed by, Fe(ii) and 2-oxoglutarate dependent oxygenases. The reactions catalysed by, three of these enzymes; flavone synthase I, flavonol synthase and, anthocyanidin synthase (ANS), are formally desaturations. In comparison, flavanone 3beta-hydroxylase catalyses hydroxylation at the C-3 pro-R, position of 2S-naringenin. Incubation of ANS with the unnatural substrate, (+/-)-naringenin results in predominantly C-3 hydroxylation to give, cis-dihydrokaempferol as the major product; trans-dihydrokaempferol and, the desaturation product, apigenin are also observed. Labelling studies, have demonstrated that some of the formal desaturation reactions catalysed, by ... [(full description)]
