ENZYMES CATALYZING THE GLYCOSYLATION OF POLYPHENOLS

摘要

Enzymes catalyzing the glycosylation of polyphenols, in particular flavonoids, benzoic acid derivatives, stilbenoids, chalconoids, chromones, and coumarin derivatives. An enzyme catalyzing the glycosylation of polyphenols, wherein the enzyme a) includes an amino acid sequence according to one of the sequences of SEQ ID NO: 7-12, or b) is encoded by a nucleic acid with a nucleotide sequence of one of the sequences of SEQ ID NO: 1-6, or c) is homologous to one of the enzymes defined in a) or b) above, or d) is encoded by a nucleic acid hybridizing under stringent conditions with a nucleic acid complementary to a sequence with a nucleotide sequence of one of the sequences of SEQ ID NO: 1-6.
