Identification of Three (Iso)flavonoid Glucosyltransferases From Pueraria lobata

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019
(Iso)flavonoids are one of the largest groups of natural phenolic products conferring great value to the health of plants and humans. Pueraria lobata, a legume, has long been used in Chinese traditional medicine.

Phenobarbital Induction of UDP-glucosyltransferase Activity in Drosophila melanogaster Meigen

, 2000
The inducibility of UDP-glucosyltransferase activities towards the exogenous substrates 1-naphthol and 2-naphthol and the endogenous metabolite xanthurenic acid was demonstrated in Drosophila melanogaster Meigen larvae and adults using phenobarbital as ...

Produção de isomaltulose, um substituto da sacarose, utilizando glicosiltransferase microbiana Isomaltulose production, a new sucrose substitute, using microbial glucosyl transferase

Química Nova, 2008
Isomaltulose, a functional isomer of sucrose, is a non-cariogenic reducing disaccharide; has a low glycemic index; selectively promotes growth of beneficial bifidobacteria in the human intestinal microflora; and has greater stability than sucrose in some

Single‐Cell Transcriptomic Profiling Identifies B Cell‐Intrinsic Dysregulation of Sphingolipid Biosynthesis and Could Be Improved by Inhibiting UGCG in Primary Immune Thrombocytopenia

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study generates the single‐cell atlas of pathogenic B‐cell subset Bc‐5 in ITP. It identifies RUNX3 as a key survival regulator and uncovers sphingolipid‐driven metabolic reprogramming, validating UGCG inhibition as a therapeutic candidate and building a valuable resource for ITP mechanistic and therapeutic exploration.

Substrate specificity of a glucosyltransferase and an N-hydroxylase involved in the biosynthesis of cyclic hydroxamic acids in gramineae [PDF]

, 1994
Microsomal preparations from maize seedlings exhibited N-hydroxylase activity with 2-hydroxy-1,4-benzoxazin-3-one (HBOA) as substrate, but not with its 7-methoxy analogue (HMBOA), or their corresponding 2-O-β-d-glucosides. Extracts of the hydroxamic acid

Loss of POGLUT2/3‐mediated O‐glucosylation produces lung and aortic phenotypes reminiscent of fibrillin1 mutants

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Fibrillins provide a scaffold for elastic fiber formation, which enables lung recoil and aortic compliance. Abnormal fibrillin microfibrils, as in Marfan syndrome, lead to enlarged alveoli, vascular stiffening, and aneurysms. Our earlier studies suggested that fibrillin function depends on O‐glucosylation of its epidermal growth ...

Genetic and Molecular Basis of Processing Traits and Genetic Improvement Progress in Major Fruit Crops

Future Postharvest and Food, EarlyView.
Processing quality in fruit crops is governed by complex genetic networks controlling texture, sweetness, color, browning, aroma, and nutritional quality. Advances in genomics, genomic selection, and genome editing enable the development of processing‐oriented cultivars with improved industrial performance, reduced postharvest losses, and enhanced ...

Cell wall glycosyltransferase of Streptococcus mutans impacts its dissemination to murine organs

Infection and Immunity
Streptococcus mutans, a cariogenic bacterium in humans, is associated with systemic disorders. Its cariogenic factors include glucosyltransferases (GTFs) and the glycosyltransferase rhamnose–glucose polysaccharide I (RgpI), which is involved in cell wall
