Abstract:
Anthocyanidin synthase (ANS), an iron(II) and 2-oxoglutarate (2OG) dependent oxygenase, catalyses the penultimate step in anthocyanin biosynthesis by oxidation of the 2R,3S,4S-cis-leucoanthocyanidins. It has been believed that in vivo the products of ANS are the anthocyanidins. However, in vitro studies on ANS using optically active cis- and trans-leucocyanidin substrates identified cyanidin as only a minor product; instead both quercetin and dihydroquercetin are products with the distribution being dependent on the C-4 stereochemistry of the leucocyanidin substrates.
