Biosynthesis pathway and end-product accumulation of flavonoids in camellia sinensis . (A) Biosynthesis pathway of flavonoids. CHS, chalcone synthase; CHI, chalcone isomerase; F3H, flavanone 3-hydroxylase; F3′H, flavonoid 3′-hydroxylase; F3′5′H, flavonoid 3′,5′-hydroxylase; DFR, dihydroflavonol 4-reductase; FLS, flavonol synthase; LAR, leucoanthocyanidin reductase; ANS, anthocyanidin synthase; ANR, anthocyanidin reductase; UFGT, UDP-glycose flavonoid glycosyltransferase; UGGT, UDP-glucose galloyl-1-O-β-D-glucosyltransferase; ECGT, epicatechins: 1-O-galloyl-β-D-glucose O-galloyltransferase; (B) Relative quantity of different flavonoid compounds. The data for relative quantity of different flavonoid compounds were quoted from Jiang (Jiang XL, 2013).
