General Information

General Information Comment Organism
metabolism CHI catalyzes the first step in flavonoid biosynthesis pathway, overview Trigonella foenum-graecum
physiological function CHI converts chalcones into the corresponding flavanones by selectively binding an ionized chalcone in a conformation conducive to ring closure in a diffusion controlled reaction, thus accelerating the stereochemically defined intramolecular cyclization reaction yielding a biologically active (S)-isomer Trigonella foenum-graecum
