Predicting the substrate specificity of a glycosyltransferase implicated in the production of phenolic volatiles in tomato fruit [PDF]
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 ...
