Immunolocalization of Flavonoid Conjugates and Their Enzymes

  • Chapter
Phenolic Metabolism in Plants

Part of the book series: Recent Advances in Phytochemistry ((RAPT,volume 26))

Abstract

Flavonoid compounds are among the most widely distributed natural plant products. They occur in several conjugated forms, most commonly as glycosylated and methylated derivatives, although other flavonoids may be acylated, prenylated or sulfated.1,2 A variety of flavonoids have been assigned different roles as antimicrobial compounds, stress metabolites or signalling molecules.3-7
