Characterizes anthocyanin synthesis in Gentiana triflora, implying relevance for plant biochemistry.
Full length cDNA clones of flavonoid 3',5'-hydroxylase, dihydroflavonol 4-reductase and flavonoid 3-glucosyltransferase were cloned from petals of Gentiana triflora. Their sequences were homologous to counterparts from other plants. Flavonoid 3',5'-hydroxylase and flavonoid 3-glucosyltransferase were enzymatically characterized by expressing cDNAs in heterologous expression systems.
