Chemical structure of 1-O-(L-erythro-biopterin-2'-yl)-a-glucose isolated from a cyanobacterium Synechococcus sp. PCC 7942

Pteridines, 2001
A pteridine glycoside in Synechococcus sp. PCC 7942, the structure of which had been tentatively identified as biopterin-glucoside, was isolated and characterized for its exact chemical structure by 2D-NMR spectroscopy. The determined structure is 1-0-(L-

The quality control of glycoprotein folding in the endoplasmic reticulum, a trip from trypanosomes to mammals

Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 1998
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 UDP-glycosyltransferase gene family and identification of members involved in flavonoid glucosylation in Chinese bayberry (Morella rubra)

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Glycosylation was catalyzed by UDP-glycosyltransferase (UGT) and was important for enriching diversity of flavonoids. Chinese bayberry (Morella rubra) has significant nutritional and medical values because of diverse natural flavonoid glycosides. However,

Genome-wide analysis of the UDP-glucose dehydrogenase gene family in Arabidopsis, a key enzyme for matrix polysaccharides in cell walls [PDF]

, 2007
Arabidopsis cell walls contain large amounts of pectins and hemicelluloses, which are predominantly synthesized via the common precursor UDP-glucuronic acid.

Genetic and structural validation of Aspergillus fumigatus UDP-N-acetylglucosamine pyrophosphorylase as a potential antifungal target [PDF]

, 2013
The sugar nucleotide UDP-N-acetylglucosamine (UDP-GlcNAc) is an essential metabolite in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. In fungi, it is the precursor for the synthesis of chitin, an essential component of the fungal cell wall.

Quantitative glycoproteomics reveals cellular substrate selectivity of the ER protein quality control sensors UGGT1 and UGGT2

eLife, 2020
UDP-glucose:glycoprotein glucosyltransferase (UGGT) 1 and 2 are central hubs in the chaperone network of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), acting as gatekeepers to the early secretory pathway, yet little is known about their cellular clients.

Expression and structural characterization of a baculovirus ecdysteroid UDP-glucosyltransferase.

Journal of General Virology, 1999
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 ...

UDP-glucose:(6-methoxy)podophyllotoxin 7-O-glucosyltransferase from suspension cultures of Linum nodiflorum [PDF]

, 2008
Cell cultures of Linum species store 6-methoxypodophyllotoxin (MPTOX), podophyllotoxin (PTOX) and related lignans as O-glucosides. UDP-glucose:(M)PTOX 7-O-glucosyltransferase has been detected and characterised in protein preparations of suspension ...
