KEGG ENZYME: 1.17.1.3

ENZYME: 1.17.1.3

Entry

EC 1.17.1.3 Enzyme

Name

leucoanthocyanidin reductase;
leucocyanidin reductase

Class

Oxidoreductases;
Acting on CH or CH2 groups;
With NAD+ or NADP+ as acceptor

Sysname

(2R,3S)-catechin:NADP+ 4-oxidoreductase

Reaction(IUBMB)

(2R,3S)-catechin + NADP+ + H2O = 2,3-trans-3,4-cis-leucocyanidin + NADPH + H+ [RN:R06532]

Reaction(KEGG)

R06532;
(other) R06533 R06615

Substrate

(2R,3S)-catechin [CPD:C06562];
NADP+ [CPD:C00006];
H2O [CPD:C00001]

Product

2,3-trans-3,4-cis-leucocyanidin [CPD:C05906];
NADPH [CPD:C00005];
H+ [CPD:C00080]

Comment

The enzyme catalyses the synthesis of catechin, catechin-4beta-ol (leucocyanidin) and the related flavan-3-ols afzelechin and gallocatechin, which are initiating monomers in the synthesis of plant polymeric proanthocyanidins or condensed tannins. While 2,3-trans-3,4-cis-leucocyanidin is the preferred flavan-3,4-diol substrate, 2,3-trans-3,4-cis-leucodelphinidin and 2,3-trans-3,4-cis-leucopelargonidin can also act as substrates, but more slowly. NADH can replace NADPH but is oxidized more slowly.
