- 2-coumarate O-beta-glucosyltransferase
In
enzymology , a 2-coumarate O-beta-glucosyltransferase (EC number|2.4.1.114) is anenzyme that catalyzes thechemical reaction :UDP-glucose + trans-2-hydroxycinnamate UDP + trans-beta-D-glucosyl-2-hydroxycinnamate
Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are
UDP-glucose andtrans-2-hydroxycinnamate , whereas its two products are UDP andtrans-beta-D-glucosyl-2-hydroxycinnamate .This enzyme belongs to the family of
glycosyltransferase s, specifically the hexosyltransferases. The systematic name of this enzyme class is UDP-glucose:trans-2-hydroxycinnamate O-beta-D-glucosyltransferase. Other names in common use include uridine diphosphoglucose-o-coumarate glucosyltransferase, and UDPG:o-coumaric acid O-glucosyltransferase. This enzyme participates inphenylpropanoid biosynthesis .References
