Other name(s): |
uridine diphosphoglucuronate-luteolin 7-O-glucuronosyltransferase; LGT; UDP-glucuronate:luteolin 7-O-glucuronosyltransferase |
Systematic name: |
UDP-α-D-glucuronate:luteolin 7-O-glucuronosyltransferase (configuration-inverting) |
Comments: |
The enzyme participates in the biosynthesis of luteolin triglucuronide, the major flavone found in the photosynthetically-active mesophyll of the primary leaves of Secale cereale (rye). |
