The Effect of Recombinant Tags on Citrus paradisi Flavonol-Specific 3-O Glucosyltransferase Activity
Recombinant tags are used extensively in protein expression systems to allow purification through IMAC (Immobilized Metal Affinity Chromatography), identification through Western blot, and to facilitate crystal formation for structural analysis.

An Update on the Evolution of Glucosyltransferase (Gtf) Genes in Streptococcus
In many caries-promoting Streptococcus species, glucosyltransferases (Gtfs) are recognized as key enzymes contributing to the modification of biofilm structures, disruption of homeostasis of healthy microbiota community and induction of caries ...

Effect of COMT and UGT1A Variants on Clinical Response to Opicapone in Parkinson's Disease
Abstract Background Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disease. Symptomatic treatment is based on dopaminergic replacement. With disease progression, the initial benefit of levodopa becomes inconsistent, and motor complications emerge.

The Inhibitory Ability of Cocoa Pod Husk Extract on Enterococcus faecalis Glucosyltransferase Enzyme Activity [PDF]
Background: The presence of Enterococcus faecalis in root canal is considered as one of the factors causing root canal treatment failure since the bacteria are capable of producing glucosyltransferase enzymes that play a role in forming endodontic ...

Abstract Mucosal melanomas (MMs) are rare, aggressive cancers with poor outcomes and limited response to standard therapies. A significant knowledge gap exists regarding their genomic landscape and corresponding druggable targets. This study explores this issue through a multi‐omic analysis, including whole exome‐, RNA‐, and targeted sequencing, of ...

Gene turnover in the common ancestor of all C4 grasses
Understanding how plants evolve more efficient photosynthesis is important in a warming world where improving crop productivity and resilience is a global priority. By generating the first reference genomes for an early‐diverging group of grasses called the Aristidoideae, we were able to reconstruct the genetic makeup of the last common ancestor of all

O-glucosyltransferases in wheat (triticum aeshvum) and the competing weed black-grass (alopecurus myosuroides) [PDF]
The glucosylation of xenobiotics, catalysed by UDP-glucose dependent O-Glucosyltransferases (OGTs), is a major route of pesticide metabolism in wheat {Triticum aestivum L.).

TcdB glucosyltransferase mutants cause epithelial cell death.
A, TcdB and TcdB glucosyltransferase domain mutants (100 nM) were tested for their capacity to glucosylate purified Rac1 (2 uM) in the presence of 20 mM UDP-[14C]-glucose over the course of 1 h.

In Neurospora crassa, a cytosolic GH18 endo‐β‐n‐acetylglucosaminidase (ENGase) functions as an active deglycosylating enzyme. Deletion of this severely alters tolerance to multiple stress conditions and causes extensive transcriptomic reprogramming, including upregulation of a GH20 exo‐β‐n‐acetylhexosaminidase under ER stress, indicating that N. crassa
