2.3.1.212	evolution	the enzyme is a plant-specific type III polyketide synthase of the chalcone synthase (CHS) superfamily. Members of the CHS-superfamily enzymes do not form a species-specific cluster, but instead group into subfamilies according to their enzymatic function. BAS lacks the active-site Phe215 residue (numbering in CHS), which has been proposed to help orient substrates and intermediates during the sequential condensation of 4-coumaroyl-CoA with malonyl-CoA in CHS, while the catalytic cysteine-histidine dyad (Cys164-His303) in CHS is well conserved in BAS	722174
