ENTRY       EC 1.14.13.19
NAME        Taxifolin 8-monooxygenase
CLASS       Oxidoreductases
            Acting on paired donors with incorporation of molecular oxygen
            With NADH or NADPH as one donor, and incorporation of one atom of
            oxygen
SYSNAME     Taxifolin,NAD(P)H:oxygen oxidoreductase (8-hydroxylating)
REACTION    Taxifolin + NADH or NADPH + O2 = 2,3-Dihydrogossypetin + H2O +
            NAD+ or NADP+
SUBSTRATE   Taxifolin
            NADH
            NADPH
            O2
            Fustin
