Except where noted otherwise, data are given for materials in their standard state (at 25 °C, 100 kPa)Infobox references Sakuranetin is a flavanone, a type of flavonoid. It can be found in Polymnia fruticosa[1] and rice, where it acts as a phytoalexin against spore germination of Pyricularia oryzae[2].
Glycosides
Sakuranin is the -O-glucoside of sakuranetin.
Metabolism
Naringenin 7-O-methyltransferase uses naringenin to yield sakuranetin, with S-adenosyl-methionine as the methyl donor[3].
