EC 1.14.20.6 Details
EC number
1.14.20.6
Accepted name
flavonol synthase
Reaction
a dihydroflavonol + 2-oxoglutarate + O2 = a flavonol + succinate + CO2 + H2O
Other name(s)
FLS (gene name)
Systematic name
dihydroflavonol,2-oxoglutarate:oxygen oxidoreductase
CAS registry number
146359-76-4
Comment
In addition to the desaturation of (2R,3R)-dihydroflavonols to flavonols, the enzyme from Citrus unshiu (satsuma mandarin) also has a non-specific activity that trans-hydroxylates the flavanones (2S)-naringenin and the unnatural (2R)-naringenin at C-3 to kaempferol and (2R,3R)-dihydrokaempferol, respectively [2]. Requires Fe2+.
