Predicting the substrate specificity of a glycosyltransferase implicated in the production of phenolic volatiles in tomato fruit [PDF]
, 2011 The volatile compounds that constitute the fruit aroma of ripe tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) are often sequestered in glycosylated form. A homology-based screen was used to identify the gene SlUGT5, which is a member of UDP-glycosyltransferase 72 family ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.To address inherent limitations in regioselectivity and catalytic efficiency of UDP‐glycosyltransferases, an integrated strategy combining free‐energy driven pocket reshaping and tunnel engineering is developed. This strategy enables UGTBL1 to bidirectional glycosylation of tyrosol, synthesizing salidroside or icariside D2 without extensive screening ...
