The UDP-glucosyltransferase multigene family in
BMC Genomics, 2008 Background Glucosidation plays a major role in the inactivation and excretion of a great variety of both endogenous and exogenous compounds. A class of UDP-glycosyltransferases (UGTs) is involved in this process.

Phenobarbital Induction of UDP-glucosyltransferase Activity in Drosophila melanogaster Meigen
Journal of Entomological Science, 2000 The inducibility of UDP-glucosyltransferase activities towards the exogenous substrates 1-naphthol and 2-naphthol and the endogenous metabolite xanthurenic acid was demonstrated in Drosophila melanogaster Meigen larvae and adults using phenobarbital as an inducer.

UDP-glucose, cereblon-dependent proinsulin degrader [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2022 Insulin secretion is regulated in multiple steps, and one of the main steps is in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Here, we show that UDP-glucose induces proinsulin ubiquitination by cereblon, and uridine binds and competes for proinsulin degradation and ...

Cloning and Characterization of a Bean Udp-Glucosyltransferase cDNA Expressed During Plant-Bacterial Interactions [PDF]
Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2001 A cDNA clone, which corresponds to an RNA transcript that accumulates in bean during the hypersensitive reaction, was isolated and designated Hra25 (for hypersensitive reaction associated). Hra25 is predicted to encode a UDP-glucosyltransferase. Northern

UDP-glucosyltransferase PpUGT85A2 controls volatile glycosylation in peach. [PDF]
J Exp Bot, 2019 The monoterpene linalool is a major contributor to aroma and flavor in peach (Prunus persica) fruit. It accumulates during fruit ripening, where up to ~40% of the compound is present in a non-volatile glycosylated form, which affects flavor quality and consumer perception by retronasal perception during tasting.

STRUCTURE OF THE ECDYSONE GLUCOSIDE FORMED BY A BACULOVIRUS ECDYSTEROID UDP-GLUCOSYLTRANSFERASE
The egt gene of the baculovirus Autographa californica nuclear polyhedrosis virus encodes an ecdysteroid UDP-glucosyltransferase. The glucoside formed by this enzyme using ecdysone and UDP-glucose as substrates has been purified and structurally characterized by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and by fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry ...

UDP-glucosyltransferase activity of housefly microsomal fraction [PDF]
Biochemical Journal, 1979 Housefly UDP-glucosyltransferase activity towards p-nitrophenol was demonstrated in a system in vitro. The activity is localized in the microsomal fraction, requires UDP-glucose, is slightly stimulated by Mg2+ and is activated optimally over a wide range of detergent concentration.

Purification and kinetic analysis of a baculovirus ecdysteroid UDP-glucosyltransferase [PDF]
Biochemical Journal, 1998 The baculovirus ecdysteroid UDP-glucosyltransferase (EGT) disrupts the hormonal balance of the insect host by catalysing the conjugation of ecdysteroids, the moulting hormones, with the sugar moiety from UDP-glucose or UDP-galactose. In this study, Autographa californica nucleopolyhedrovirus EGT has been overproduced and purified, and its kinetic ...

Highly Efficient Biosynthesis of Salidroside by a UDP-glucosyltransferase-catalyzed Cascade Reaction
Biotechnology Letters, 2023 Abstract Objective Salidroside is an important plant-derived aromatic compound with diverse biological properties. The main objective of this study was to synthesize salidroside from tyrosol using UDP-glucosyltransferase (UGT) with in situ regeneration of UDP-glucose (UDPG).
