uridine diphosphate/애기장대

Acceptor substrates flexibility of previously characterized flavonol 7-O-rhamnosyltransferase (AtUGT89C1) from Arabidopsis thaliana was explored with an endogenous nucleotide diphosphate sugar and five different classes of flavonoids (flavonols, flavones, flavanones, chalcone and stilbenes) through

2-Deoxy-2-fluoro-d-glucose (FDG) is glucose analog routinely used in clinical and animal radiotracer studies to trace glucose uptake but it has rarely been used in plants. Previous studies analyzed FDG translocation and distribution pattern in plants and proposed that FDG could be used as a tracer

The uridine diphosphate glycosyltransferase (UGT) plays the central role in glycosylation of small molecules by transferring sugars to various acceptors including bioactive natural products in plants. UGT89C1 from Arabidopsis thaliana is a novel UGT, a rhamnosyltransferase, specifically recognizes

Quercetin-4'-O-glucoside is one of the major quercetin derivatives in the mature red onion bulb. It has an adjuvant effect on allergies, asthma, arthritis, and cancer. The present study aimed to use uridine diphosphate glycosyltransferase 88A1 (UGT88A1) from Arabidopsis thaliana to achieve the

The phytohormone abscisic acid (ABA) is crucial for plant growth and adaptive responses to various stress conditions. Plants continuously adjust the ABA level to meet physiological needs, but how ABA homeostasis occurs is not fully understood. This study provides evidence that UGT71B6, an ABA

CONCLUSIONS A UDP-glucose pyrophosphorylase gene ( LgUGPase ) was identified from Larix gmelinii, and its function in enhancing vegetative growth and cellulose biosynthesis was confirmed by analyzing transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana overexpressed LgUGPase . UDP-glucose pyrophosphorylase (UGPase), an

Ginsenoside Rh2, a rare protopanaxadiol (PPD)-type triterpene saponin isolated from Panax ginseng, exhibits notable anticancer and immune-system-enhancing activities. Glycosylation catalyzed by uridine diphosphate-dependent glucosyltransferase (UGT) is the final biosynthetic step of ginsenoside Rh2.

Phenols are present in the environment and commonly in contact with humans and animals because of their wide applications in many industries. In a previous study, we reported that uridine diphosphate-glucose-dependent glucosyltransferase PtUGT72B1 from Populus trichocarpa has high activity in

2,4,5-Trichlorophenol, 2,6-dimethylphenol, 3-methylcatechol, phenol, hydroquinone, catechol, and 3,4-dichloroaniline are present in the environment and are risky to humans and animals because of their wide applications in many industries. In this study, a putative uridine diphosphate

To identify candidate genes involved in Arabidopsis flavonoid biosynthesis, we applied transcriptome coexpression analysis and independent component analyses with 1388 microarray data from publicly available databases. Two glycosyltransferases, UGT79B1 and UGT84A2 were found to cluster with

Uridine diphosphate-glucose dehydrogenase (UGD, EC1.1.1.22 oxidizes UDP-Glc (UDP-D-glucose) to UDP-GlcA (UDP-D-glucuronate), a critical precursor of cell wall polysaccharides. GbUGD6 from Gossypium barbadense is more highly expressed late in the elongation of cotton fibers (15 d post-anthesis (DPA))

Uridine diphosphate-glucose pyrophosphorylase (UGP) occupies a central position in carbohydrate metabolism in all kingdoms of life, since its product uridine diphosphate-glucose (UDP-glucose) is essential in a number of anabolic and catabolic pathways and is a precursor for other sugar nucleotides.

In phosphate (Pi)-deprived Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana), phosphatidylglycerol (PG) is substituted by sulfolipid for maintaining Pi homeostasis. Sulfoquinovosyl diacylglycerol1 (AtSQD1) encodes a protein, which catalyzes uridine diphosphate glucose (UDPG) and sulfite

An analytical workflow was developed for the absolute quantification of uridine diphosphate (UDP)-sugars in plant material in order to compare their metabolism both in wild-type Arabidopsis thaliana and mutated plants (ugd2,3) possessing genetic alterations within the UDP-glucose dehydrogenase genes

Plants, as predominantly sessile organisms, have evolved complex detoxification pathways to deal with a diverse range of toxic chemicals. The elasticity of this stress response system additionally enables them to tackle relatively recently produced, novel, synthetic pollutants. One such compound is
