Protein Domain : Dirigent protein IPR004265

Type  Family
Description  Dirigent proteins impart stereoselectivity on the phenoxy radical-coupling reaction, yielding optically active lignans from two molecules of coniferyl alcohol in the biosynthesis of lignans, flavonolignans, and alkaloids and thus plays a central role in plant secondary metabolism [ , ]. This family also includes homologue DRR206 (disease resistance response protein 206). DRR206 is induced by the metabolite pinoresinol monoglucoside and is involved in phytoalexin (lignan) biosynthesis as a defense response [].
