Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021 We showed previously that gallic acid is produced in walnut from 3-dehydroshikimate by a shikimate dehydrogenase (JrSkDH). This study focuses on the next step in the hydrolysable tannin pathway, the formation of 1-O-galloyl-β-D-glucose from the phenolic ...

Raffinose Inhibits Streptococcus mutans Biofilm Formation by Targeting Glucosyltransferase
Microbiology Spectrum, 2022 Streptococcus mutans is a representative biofilm-forming bacterium that causes dental caries through glucosyltransferase (GTF) activity. Glucans are synthesized from sucrose by GTFs and provide binding sites for S.

The Role of Acyl-Glucose in Anthocyanin Modifications
Molecules, 2014 Higher plants can produce a wide variety of anthocyanin molecules through modification of the six common anthocyanin aglycons that they present. Thus, hydrophilic anthocyanin molecules can be formed and stabilized by glycosylation and acylation.

Enzymatic Synthesis of Modified Alternaria Mycotoxins Using a Whole-Cell Biotransformation System
Toxins, 2020 Reference standards for Alternaria mycotoxins are rarely available, especially the modified mycotoxins alternariol-3-glucoside (AOH-3-G), alternariol-9-glucoside (AOH-9-G), and alternariol monomethylether-3-glucoside (AME-3-G).
