A highly selective 2′′-O-glycosyltransferase from Ziziphus jujuba and De novo biosynthesis of isovitexin 2′′-O-glucoside†
Abstract
A novel and efficient 2′′-O-glycosyltransferase ZjOGT38 was identified from Ziziphus jujuba. It could regio-selectively glycosylate 2-hydroxyflavanone C-glycosides. ZjOGT38 allowed de novo biosynthesis of isovitexin 2′′-O-glucoside in E. coli.
