Genome-wide characterization of the UDP-glycosyltransferase gene family reveals their potential roles in leaf senescence in cotton.

International Journal of Biological Macromolecules, 2022
Uridine diphosphate (UDP) glycosyltransferases (UGTs) involved in many metabolic processes and are essential for plant growth and development. Although UGTs proteins have been studied in many plants, the biological functions of UGT genes in cotton leaf ...

Utility of Bioluminescent Homogeneous Nucleotide Detection Assays in Measuring Activities of Nucleotide-Sugar Dependent Glycosyltransferases and Studying Their Inhibitors

Molecules, 2021
Traditional glycosyltransferase (GT) activity assays are not easily configured for rapid detection nor for high throughput screening because they rely on radioactive product isolation, the use of heterogeneous immunoassays or mass spectrometry.

High level in vivo mucin-type glycosylation in Escherichia coli

Microbial Cell Factories, 2018
Background Increasing efforts have been made to assess the potential of Escherichia coli strains for the production of complex recombinant proteins. Since a considerable part of therapeutic proteins are glycoproteins, the lack of the post-translational ...

Molecular Cloning and Functional Analysis of IrUGT86A1-like Gene in Medicinal Plant Isodon rubescens (Hemsl.) Hara

Life, 2022
The synthesis of secondary metabolites in plants often includes glycosylation modifications. Often, the final step of constructing plant secondary metabolites is completed by glycosylation transferases, which are also involved in many cell processes.

NleB2 from enteropathogenic Escherichia coli is a novel arginine-glucose transferase effector.

PLoS Pathogens, 2021
During infection, enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) and enterohaemorrhagic E. coli (EHEC) directly manipulate various aspects of host cell function through the translocation of type III secretion system (T3SS) effector proteins directly into the ...

UGT76B1 and 41 Additional Arabidopsis UDP-Glycosyltransferases Show No Detectable In Vitro Glycosylation Activity Toward N-Hydroxypipecolic Acid

Life
N-hydroxypipecolic acid (NHP) is a key mobile signal in systemic acquired resistance in plants, and its glycosylation has been proposed to regulate immune signaling. Previous studies have demonstrated that the UDP-glycosyltransferase UGT76B1, known as an
