The C-4 stereochemistry of leucocyanidin substrates for anthocyanidin synthase affects product selectivity.

Anthocyanidin synthase (ANS), an iron(II) and 2-oxoglutarate (2OG) dependent oxygenase, catalyses the penultimate step in anthocyanin biosynthesis by oxidation of the 2R,3S,4S-cis-leucoanthocyanidins. It has been believed that in vivo the products of ANS are the anthocyanidins. However, in vitro stu...
