Enzyme Information
| 2.1.1.212 |
2,7,4'-trihydroxyisoflavanone 4'-O-methyltransferase.
based on mapping to UniProt Q29U70
S-adenosyl-L-methionine + 2,4',7-trihydroxyisoflavanone = S-adenosyl-L- homocysteine + 2,7-dihydroxy-4'-methoxyisoflavanone.
-!- Specifically methylates 2,4',7-trihydroxyisoflavanone on the 4'-position. -!- No activity with isoflavones. -!- The enzyme is involved in formononetin biosynthesis in legumes. -!- The protein from pea (Pisum sativum) also methylates (+)- 6a-hydroxymaackiain at the 3-position (cf. EC 2.1.1.270).

| 2.1.1.46 |
Isoflavone 4'-O-methyltransferase.
based on mapping to UniProt Q29U70
S-adenosyl-L-methionine + a 4'-hydroxyisoflavone = S-adenosyl-L- homocysteine + a 4'-methoxyisoflavone.
-!- The enzyme catalyzes the methylation of daidzein and genistein. -!- It does not methylate naringenin, apigenin, luteolin or kaempferol.
