Recombinant expression, purification and biochemical characterization of kievitone hydratase from Nectria haematococca.

Kievitone hydratase catalyzes the addition of water to the double bond of the prenyl moiety of plant isoflavonoid kievitone and, thereby, forms the tertiary alcohol hydroxy-kievitone.
