Metabolite Identification
Common Name4'-O-Methylcatechin
Description4'-O-Methylcatechin belongs to the class of organic compounds known as catechins. Catechins are compounds containing a catechin moiety, which is a 3,4-dihydro-2-chromene-3,5.7-tiol. 4'-O-Methylcatechin has been detected, but not quantified in, chinese cinnamons (Cinnamomum aromaticum) and herbs and spices. This could make 4'-O-methylcatechin a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Based on a literature review very few articles have been published on 4'-O-Methylcatechin.

Enzymes

General function:
Involved in transferase activity, transferring hexosyl groups
Specific function:
UDPGT is of major importance in the conjugation and subsequent elimination of potentially toxic xenobiotics and endogenous compounds. This isoform glucuronidates bilirubin IX-alpha to form both the IX-alpha-C8 and IX-alpha-C12 monoconjugates and diconjugate. Is also able to catalyze the glucuronidation of 17beta-estradiol, 17alpha-ethinylestradiol, 1-hydroxypyrene, 4-methylumbelliferone, 1-naphthol, paranitrophenol, scopoletin, and umbelliferone.
