R07332 ]
Reaction(KEGG)
Substrate
Product
UDP [CPD:
C00015 ];
isoflavone 7-O-beta-D-glucoside [CPD:

Comment
The 4'-methoxy isoflavones biochanin A and formononetin and, more slowly, the 4'-hydroxyisoflavones genistein and daidzein, can act as acceptors. The enzyme does not act on isoflavanones, flavones, flavanones, flavanols or coumarins.
