A highly regio- and donor-specific 2''-O-rhamnosyltransferase GuRhaGT was characterised from the medical plant Glycyrrhiza uralensis. GuRhaGT could efficiently catalyse rhamnosylation at 2''-OH of the C-3 glycosyl moiety of triterpenoid saponins.
A highly efficient and promiscuous 7,4′-di-O-glycosyltransferase ZjOGT3 was discovered from the medicinal plant Ziziphus jujuba var. spinosa. ZjOGT3 could sequentially catalyse 4′- and 7-O-glycosylation of flavones to produce 7,4′-di-O-glycosides with...
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
