Nature Communications, 2017 In contrast to flavonols, the functions of plant flavones are largely unknown. Here, the authors report the two differentially evolved glucosyltranferases (flavone 7-O-glucosyltransferase and flavone 5-O-glucosyltransferase) determine natural variation ...

Functional analysis of UDP-sugar: sterol glucosyltransferases [PDF]
Glycosyltransferases (GTs) are essential for the biosynthesis and diversification of many therapeutically important natural products. Of these, UDP-sugar: sterol glucosyltransferases (UGTs) (2.4.1.173) catalyse the synthesis of therapeutically important ...

Glia, Volume 74, Issue 11, November 2026.ATP1B2 and GLAST identify two astrocyte subpopulations in the hippocampus with distinct molecular signatures. Transcriptomic shifts during aging differ between both subpopulations. Aged ATP1B2+ astrocytes rewire their metabolism while double‐positive aged astrocytes display a reduced synaptogenic capability.

, 2009 Glucosyltransferases (GtfB/C/D) in Streptococcus mutans are responsible for synthesizing water-insoluble and water- soluble glucans from sucrose and play very crucial roles in the formation of dental plaque. A monoclonal antibody against a 19-mer peptide

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 10, Page 7558-7574, October 2026.ABSTRACT Seed defence priming is emerging as a novel, cost‐efficient and environmentally safe tool for pest management. It has been proposed as a means to uncouple the defence‐growth trade‐off in plants by enhancing defence responses with minimal fitness costs, but the mechanisms underlying this role remain elusive.

Anthocyanins and betalains in evolution: Why mutual exclusion remains the best‐supported model
Plant Biology, Volume 28, Issue 6, Page 1763-1766, October 2026.Anthocyanins and betalains are plant pigments produced through different biosynthetic pathways and are generally considered mutually exclusive. We examine claims of their co‐occurrence, arguing that methodological flaws and data misinterpretation have led to unsupported reports, and offer recommendations for more rigorous future research.

Site-Directed Mutational Analysis of Flavonol 3-0-Glucosyltransferases from Citrus paradisi
, 2013 Glucosyltransferases (GTs) are the important group of enzymes which facilitates the incorporation of UDPactivated glucose to a corresponding acceptor molecule through glucosylation. Glucosylation is a common alteration reaction in plant metabolism and is

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 51, 14 September 2026.We present a chromosome‐level genome assembly of Siraitia grosvenorii and, through comparative genomics, uncover a conserved UGT73 tandem array driving triterpenoid saponin diversification in Cucurbitaceae. Crystalized SgUGT73AM30 further reveals the regioselectivity mechanism underlying its catalytic activity.
