2.3.1.215

Accepted name:

anthocyanidin 3-O-glucoside 6′′-O-acyltransferase

Reaction:

4-hydroxycinnamoyl-CoA + an anthocyanidin 3-O-β-D-glucoside = CoA + an anthocyanidin 3-O-[6-O-(4-hydroxycinnamoyl)-β-D-glucoside]

Glossary:

4-hydroxycinnamoyl-CoA = 4-coumaroyl-CoA
3,4-dihydroxycinnamoyl-CoA = caffeoyl-CoA
cyanidin = 3,3′,4′,5,7-pentahydroxyflavylium
delphinidin = 3,3′,4′,5,5′,7-hexahydroxyflavylium

Systematic name:

4-hydroxycinnamoyl-CoA:anthocyanin-3-O-glucoside 6′′-O-acyltransferase

Comments:

Isolated from the plants Perilla frutescens and Gentiana triflora (clustered gentian). Acts on a range of anthocyanidin 3-O-glucosides, 3,5-di-O-glucosides and cyanidin 3-rutinoside. It did not act on delphinidin 3,3′,7-tri-O-glucoside. Recombinant Perilla frutescens enzyme could utilize caffeoyl-CoA but not malonyl-CoA as alternative acyl donor.
