Identification and Functional Characterization of <i>Isoflavone Synthase</i> Gene Family in Pea ( <i>Pisum sativum</i> ): The Entry Point to Pisatin Biosynthesis
2025-12-23
Abstract excerpt
Isoflavone synthase (IFS), a cytochrome P450 monooxygenase of the CYP93C subfamily, catalyzes the conversion of flavanones into isoflavones, the first committed step in the biosynthesis of isoflavonoid phytoalexins. In pea ( Pisum sativum L.), the phytoalexin pisatin plays a pivotal role in defense against pathogens. However, the molecular basis underlying IFS function in pea remains poorly understood. In this st...
