Isolation and Characterization of UDP-glucosyltransferase in the Cultured Cells of Nicotiana tabacum

HETEROCYCLES, 2002
A glucosyltransferase, catalyzing the transfer of glucose from UDP-glucose to hydroxycoumarins, was isolated from the cultured cells of Nicotiana tabacum. The glucosyltransferase was purified to electrophoretic homogeneity by a procedure involving Sephadex G-25, Agarose-gel affinity, and Sephadex G-200 columns; the enzyme has molecular mass of 61 kDa ...

Molecular cloning and overexpression of a novel UDP-glucosyltransferase elevating salidroside levels in Rhodiola sachalinensis

Plant Cell Reports, 2007
Salidroside is a novel effective adaptogenic drug extracted from the medicinal plant Rhodiola sachalinensis A. Bor. Because this plant is a rare resource and has low yield, there is great interest in enhancing the production of salidroside. In this study, a putative UDP-glucosyltransferase (UGT) cDNA, UGT73B6, was isolated from Rhodiola sachalinensis ...

Protective role of UDP-glucosyltransferases against deoxynivalenol-induced proventriculitis in chicks

Microbial Pathogenesis
This study establishes the deoxynivalenol (DON)-induced proventriculitis model in chicks to evaluate the protective effects of UDP-glucosyltransferases (UGTs) against glandular stomach injury. In this study, the total of 75 1-day-old male partridge chicks were randomly divided into 5 groups or 10 days, the dietary and treatments includes basal diet as ...

Molecular cloning and characterization of Stevia rebaudiana UDP-glucosyltransferase.

Shi yan sheng wu xue bao, 2004
We report here the cloning and characterization of a UDP-glucose flavonoid glucosyltransferase (srUFGT) in Stevia rebaudiana. The isolated cDNA was 1419 bp in length encoding 473 deduced amino acids with a predicted molecular mass of 53.2 kDa.

Overexpression of UDP-glucosyltransferase 71C5 increases glucose tolerance in Arabidopsis thaliana

Russian Journal of Plant Physiology, 2010
Glucosyltransferases (GTs) catalyze transfer of sugar moieties to a wide range of acceptor molecules, which could be proteins, lipids, or low-molecular-weight lipophilic acceptors. As a subfamily of GTs, uridine diphosphate (UDP)-glucosyltransferases (UGTs), which function is glycosylation of low-molecularweight lipophilic acceptors, has drawn ...

Separation by FPLC chromatofocusing of UDP-glucosyltransferases from three developmental stages ofDrosophila melanogaster

Archives of Insect Biochemistry and Physiology, 1997
Variation of UDP-glucosyltransferase activity, during Drosophila melanogaster development, was analyzed. The endogenous metabolite xanthurenic acid and the xenobiotic compounds 1-naphthol and 2-naphthol were used as substrates. Developmentally regulated differences were observed for the three substrates, suggesting the presence of UDP ...

Mining UDP-Glucosyltransferases to Develop High-Efficiency Production Strategies for Emodin Glucosides

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry
Emodin-6-O-β-d-glucoside (E6G) and Emodin-8-O-β-d-glucoside (E8G) are promising plant-derived bioactive compounds with significant pharmaceutical potential. However, their large-scale production is hindered by low natural abundance and complex extraction processes.

Expression of endogenous UDP-glucosyltransferase in endophyte Phomopsis liquidambaris reduces deoxynivalenol contamination in wheat

Fungal Genetics and Biology
Fusarium head blight is a devastating disease that causes severe yield loses and mycotoxin contamination in wheat grain. Additionally, balancing the trade-off between wheat production and disease resistance has proved challenging. This study aimed to expand the genetic tools of the endophyte Phomopsis liquidambaris against Fusarium graminearum ...

Characterization of the ecdysteroid UDP-glucosyltransferase gene of Spodoptera litura multinucleocapsid nucleopolyhedrovirus.

Chinese journal of biotechnology, 2000
The ecdysteroid UDP-glucosyltransferase (EGT) gene of Spodoptera litura multinucleocapsid nucleopolyhedrovirus (SpltMNPV), Guangzhouisolate was sequenced. The open reading frame of the gene is 1530 nucleotides long, encoding a putative protein of 509 amino acids with Mr of 58,500. The 5' noncoding region has a TATA box. A polyadenylation signal, AATAAA,
