Hidden O‐Deglycosylation Activity Triggers O → C Rearrangement for Aryl Di‐C‐Glucoside Formation by the C‐Glycosyltransferase From Fortunella crassifolia

open access: yesBiotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
Here, we uncovered an unexpected O‐deglycosylation activity of the C glycosyltransferase (FcCGT), forming phloretin (1) from phloretin 2'‐O‐glucoside (2). In the presence of UDP, FcCGT catalyzes the O→C rearrangement to yield nothofagin (3). Upon additional UDP‐glucose, further C‐glycosylation occurs, forming phloretin 3',5'‐di‐C‐glucoside (4 ...
