ENZYME entry: EC 2.5.1.71

PURL: https://purl.expasy.org/enzyme/EC/2.5.1.71
Accepted Name
leachianone-G 2''-dimethylallyltransferase
Alternative Name(s)
leachianone G 2''-dimethylallyltransferase
LG 2''-dimethylallyltransferase
LGDT
Reaction catalysed
leachianone G + dimethylallyl diphosphate = sophoraflavanone G + diphosphate
Comment(s)
  • The reaction forms the lavandulyl sidechain of sophoraflavanone G by transferring a prenyl group to the 2'' position of another prenyl group attached at postiion 8 of leachianone G.
  • The enzyme is specific for prenyl diphosphate as the prenyl donor, as it cannot be replaced by isopentenyl diphosphate or geranyl diphosphate.
  • Euchrenone a7 (a 5-deoxy derivative of leachianone G) and kenusanone I (a 7-methoxy derivative of leachianone G) can also act as substrates, but more slowly.
  • Along with EC 1.14.14.142 and EC 2.5.1.70, this enzyme forms part of the sophoraflavanone-G biosynthesis pathway.
