EC 1.3.1.45     
Accepted name: 2′-hydroxyisoflavone reductase
Reaction: vestitone + NADP+ = 2′-hydroxyformononetin + NADPH + H+

Other name(s): NADPH:2′-hydroxyisoflavone oxidoreductase; isoflavone reductase; 2′,7-dihydroxy-4′,5′-methylenedioxyisoflavone reductase
Systematic name: vestitone:NADP+ oxidoreductase
Comments: In the reverse reaction, a 2′-hydroxyisoflavone is reduced to an isoflavanone; 2′-hydroxypseudobaptigenin also acts. Involved in the biosynthesis of the pterocarpin phytoalexins medicarpin and maackiain.
