A bisbenzylisoquinoline alkaloid resulting from the formal oxidative dimerisation of 4-{[(1R)-6,7-dimethoxy-2-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinolin-1-yl]methyl}phenol by attachment of the phenolic oxygen of one molecule to the benzene ring of the second (ortho to the phenolic hydroxy group of the latter).
[CYP3A4 protein results in increased glutathionylation of dauricine] which results in increased chemical synthesis of N-desmethyldauricine; [CYP3A4 protein results in increased glutathionylation of dauricine] which results in increased chemical synthesis of quinone methide; CYP3A4 protein results in increased oxidation of and results in increased activity of dauricine; Ketoconazole inhibits the reaction [CYP3A4 protein results in increased glutathionylation of dauricine]
