2.4.1.358

Accepted name:

acylphloroglucinol glucosyltransferase

Reaction:

UDP-α-D-glucose + 2-acylphloroglucinol = UDP + 2-acylphloroglucinol 1-O-β-D-glucoside

Glossary:

phlorisobutyrophenone = 2-methyl-1-(2,4,6-trihydroxyphenyl)propan-1-one
phlorisovalerophenone = 3-methyl-1-(2,4,6-trihydroxyphenyl)butan-1-one

Other name(s):

UGT71K3

Systematic name:

UDP-α-D-glucose:2-acylphloroglucinol 1-O-β-glucosyltransferase

Comments:

Isolated from strawberries (Fragaria X ananassa). Acts best on phloroisovalerophenone and phlorobutyrophenone but will also glycosylate many other phenolic compounds. A minor product of the reaction is the 5-O-β-D-glucoside.
