2-hydroxyisoflavanone synthase (EC 1.14.14.87, CYT93C, IFS, isoflavonoid synthase) is an enzyme with systematic name liquiritigenin,NADPH:oxygen oxidoreductase (hydroxylating, aryl migration).[1][2] It catalyses a rearrangement reaction which converts flavonoids into isoflavones, for example:

Template:Chemrxn

The product 2,4',7-trihydroxyisoflavanone is unstable and loses water, either spontaneously or by the action of 2-hydroxyisoflavanone dehydratase, giving daidzein.[3]

Template:Chemrxn

The enzyme can also act on naringenin, leading to the isoflavone genistein.{[4]

Template:Chemrxn

Isoflavonoid synthase is a cytochrome P450 protein containing heme. It requires a partner cytochrome P450 reductase for functional expression. This uses nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH).[5]
