CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF QUERCETIN 2,3-DIOXYGENASE ANAEROBICALLY COMPLEXED WITH THE SUBSTRATE QUERCETN
Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 12486225
Function
[QDOI_ASPJA] Performs the first step in the degradation of the flavonoid quercetin by a dioxygenase reaction. The enzyme catalyzes the cleavage of the O-heteroaromatic ring of the flavonol quercetin yielding the depside 2-protocatechuoyl-phloroglucinol carboxylic acid and carbon monoxide. This involves the remarkable dioxygenolytic cleavage of two carbon-carbon bonds.
