In enzymology, a flavonol 3-O-glucosyltransferase () is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction :UDP-glucose + a flavonol UDP + a flavonol 3-O-beta-D-glucoside Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are UDP-glucose and flavonol, whereas its two products are UDP and flavonol 3-O-beta-D-glucoside. This enzyme participates in flavonoid biosynthesis. It is an enzyme found in grape (''Vitis vinifera''). == Nomenclature == This enzyme belongs to the family of glycosyltransferases, specifically the hexosyltransferases. The systematic name of this enzyme class is UDP-glucose:flavonol 3-O-D-glucosyltransferase. Other names in common use include: * GTI, * uridine diphosphoglucose-flavonol 3-O-glucosyltransferase, * UDP-glucose:flavonol 3-O-glucosyltransferase, and * UDP-glucose:flavonoid 3-O-glucosyltransferase (UFGT). Among those, UFGT is divided into UDP-glucose: Flavonoid 3-O-glucosyltransferase (UF3GT) and UDP-glucose: Flavonoid 5-O-glucosyltransferase (UF5GT), which are responsible for the glucosylation of anthocyanins to produce stable molecules. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Flavonol 3-O-glucosyltransferase」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
