EC 1.14.11.9 Details
EC number
1.14.11.9
Accepted name
flavanone 3-dioxygenase
Reaction
a (2S)-flavan-4-one + 2-oxoglutarate + O2 = a (2R,3R)-dihydroflavonol + succinate + CO2
Other name(s)
naringenin 3-hydroxylase, flavanone 3-hydroxylase, flavanone 3β-hydroxylase, flavanone synthase I, (2S)-flavanone 3-hydroxylase, naringenin,2-oxoglutarate:oxygen oxidoreductase (3-hydroxylating), F3H, flavanone,2-oxoglutarate:oxygen oxidoreductase (3-hydroxylating)
Systematic name
(2S)-flavan-4-one,2-oxoglutarate:oxygen oxidoreductase (3-hydroxylating)
CAS registry number
75991-43-4
Comment
Requires Fe2+ and ascorbate. This plant enzyme catalyses an early step in the flavonoid biosynthesis pathway, leading to the production of flavanols and anthocyanins. Substrates include (2S)-naringenin, (2S)-eriodictyol, (2S)-dihydrotricetin and (2S)-pinocembrin. Some enzymes are bifuctional and also catalyse EC 1.14.20.6, flavonol synthase.
