In enzymology a taxifolin 8-monooxygenase (EC 1.14.13.19) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reactiontaxifolin + NAD(P)H + H+ + O2 23-dihydrogossypetin + NAD(P)+ + H2OThe 5 substrates of this enzyme are taxifolin NADH NADPH H+ and O2 whereas its 4 products are 23-dihydrogossypetin NAD+ NADP+ 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.
