EC 1.3.1.51     
Accepted name: 2′-hydroxydaidzein reductase
Reaction: 2′-hydroxy-2,3-dihydrodaidzein + NADP+ = 2′-hydroxydaidzein + NADPH + H+

Other name(s): NADPH:2′-hydroxydaidzein oxidoreductase; HDR; 2′-hydroxydihydrodaidzein:NADP+ 2′-oxidoreductase
Systematic name: 2′-hydroxy-2,3-dihydrodaidzein:NADP+ 2′-oxidoreductase
Comments: In the reverse reaction, the 2′-hydroxyisoflavone (2′-hydroxydaidzein) is reduced to an isoflavanone. Also acts on 2′-hydroxyformononetin and to a small extent on 2′-hydroxygenistein. Involved in the biosynthesis of the phytoalexin glyceollin. The isoflavones biochanin A, daidzein and genestein as well as the flavonoids apigenin, kaempferol and quercetin do not act as substrates.
