EC number
1.14.14.140
Accepted name
licodione synthase
Reaction
liquiritigenin + [reduced NADPH—hemoprotein reductase] + O2 = licodione + [oxidized NADPH—hemoprotein reductase] + H2O
Other name(s)
(2S)-flavanone 2-hydroxylase, CYP93B1
Systematic name
liquiritigenin,[reduced NADPH—hemoprotein reductase]:oxygen oxidoreductase (licodione-forming)
CAS registry number
157972-05-9
Comment
A cytochrome P-450 (heme-thiolate) protein isolated from licorice plants (Glycyrrhiza echinata L.). The immediate product is likely 2-hydroxyliquiritigenin, which spontaneously rearranges to form licodione.
