Medicarpin is a pterocarpan, a derivative of isoflavonoids.
Natural occurrences.
Medicarpin is found in "Medicago truncatula" and "Swartzia madagascariensis". It can also be found in "Maackia amurensis" cell cultures.
The root nodule formation by "Sinorhizobium meliloti" is apparently dependent on the flavonoids pathway.
Metabolism.
Pterocarpin synthase has 3 substrates : medicarpin, NADP+ and H2O, and 3 products : vestitone, NADPH and H+.
