“…Their structural variation, reflected by more than 9,000 compounds reported to date, is achieved through "decorative" steps, such as glycosylations, acylations, prenylations, methylations, hydroxylations, and combinations of the above (2). Because chemodiversity correlates with a diversity of function, specific strategies and mechanisms of chemical structural modification are of great interest (3,4). Numerous bioactivities have been reported for various flavonoids, turning them into attractive targets for bioengineering experiments (5,6).…”
