Sakuranetin is a flavan-on, the 7-methoxy derivative of naringenin, found in Polymnia fruticosa[1] and rice, where it acts as a phytoalexin against spore germination of Pyricularia oryzae.[2]
Glycosides
Metabolism
- biosynthesis
Naringenin 7-O-methyltransferase uses naringenin to yield sakuranetin, with S-adenosyl-methionine (SAM) as the methyl donor.[4]
- biodegradation
In compounds like 7-methoxylated flavanones like sakuranetin, demethylation followed by sulfation occur in model organism Cunninghamella elegans.[5]
