In enzymology a leucocyanidin oxygenase (EC 1.14.11.19) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reactionleucocyanidin + 2-oxoglutarate + O2 cis- and trans-dihydroquercetins + succinate + CO2 + 2 H2OThe 3 substrates of this enzyme are leucocyanidin 2-oxoglutarate and O2 whereas its 5 products are cis-dihydroquercetin trans-dihydroquercetin succinate CO2 and H2O.This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases specifically those acting on paired donors with O2 as oxidant and incorporation or reduction of oxygen.
