EC 1.14.14.90     
Accepted name: isoflavone 2′-hydroxylase
Reaction: an isoflavone + [reduced NADPH—hemoprotein reductase] + O2 = a 2′-hydroxyisoflavone + [oxidized NADPH—hemoprotein reductase] + H2O

Other name(s): isoflavone 2′-monooxygenase; CYP81E1; CYP Ge-3
Systematic name: isoflavone,[reduced NADPH—hemoprotein reductase]:oxygen oxidoreductase (2′-hydroxylating)
Comments: A cytochrome P-450 (heme-thiolate) protein. Acts on daidzein, formononetin and genistein. EC 1.14.14.89, 4′-methoxyisoflavone 2′-hydroxylase, has the same reaction but is more specific as it requires a 4′-methoxyisoflavone.
