Characteristics of the protein coding sequence
Flavonoid 3',5'-hydroxylase
EN
The protein functions in the anthocyanin biosynthetic pathway. The enzyme catalyzes the hydroxylation of the benzene ring of dihydrokaempferol to produce dihydromyricetin (a precursor of delphinidin, a blue pigment). The enzyme additionally catalyzes the 3'5'-hydroxylation of naringenin and eriodictyol to form 5,7,3,'4',5'-pentahydroxyflavanone. Overexpression of flavonoid 3',5'-hydroxylase genes in some ornamental flowers resulted in blue-purple coloured petals.
