The present review deals with the stages of synthesis and processing of asparagine-linked oligosaccharides occurring in the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum and their relationship to the acquisition by glycoproteins of their proper tertiary structures.

Genome-wide analysis of the UDP-glucose dehydrogenase gene family in Arabidopsis, a key enzyme for matrix polysaccharides in cell walls [PDF]
Arabidopsis cell walls contain large amounts of pectins and hemicelluloses, which are predominantly synthesized via the common precursor UDP-glucuronic acid.

Expression and structural characterization of a baculovirus ecdysteroid UDP-glucosyltransferase.
The baculovirus enzyme 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, EGT has been overproduced using a recombinant Autographa californica nucleopolyhedrovirus and an ...

Biosynthesis of cyanogenic glucosides in Phaseolus lunatus and the evolution of oxime‐based defenses
Lima bean, Phaseolus lunatus, is a crop legume that produces the cyanogenic glucosides linamarin and lotaustralin. In the legumes Lotus japonicus and Trifolium repens, the biosynthesis of these two α‐hydroxynitrile glucosides involves cytochrome P450 ...

Studies on sterol : UDP glucose glucosyltransferase in germinating pea seedling
Steryl glycoside is synthesized from mevalonate [2- ¹⁴C] in both maturing pea seeds and etiolated pea seedlings. The maturing seed appeared more active than the seedlings for this synthesis.
