Infobox references

Laricitrin is a O-methylated flavonol, a type of flavonoid. It is found in red grape (absent in white grape)[1] and in Vaccinium uliginosum (bog billberries)[2]. It is one of the phenolic compounds present in wine[3].

Metabolism

Laricitrin is formed from myricetin by the action of the enzyme myricetin O-methyltransferase[4]. It is further methylated by laricitrin 5'-O-methyltransferase into syringetin.
