Identification and functional characterization of a flavonol synthase gene from sweet potato [Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam.]

Flavonol synthase (FLS) is a key enzyme of the flavonoid biosynthetic pathway, which catalyzes the conversion of dihydroflavonols into flavonols. In this study, the FLS gene IbFLS1 was cloned and characterized from sweet potato. The resulting IbFLS1 protein showed a high similarity with other plant...
