NDP-glycosyltransferase YjiC

UniProtKB accession:  O34539

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  Glycosyltransferase that can glycosylate a wide range of substrates, including various flavonoids, phenyl ketones, curcuminoid, lignins, zingerone, triterpenes, stilbene and anthraquinone, using UDP-glucose or ADP-glucose as sugar donor (PubMed:28315700, PubMed:33152360). It also exhibits O-, N- and S-glycosylation activities towards simple aromatics (PubMed:28315700). In vivo, the broad acceptor tolerance of YjiC might function as a detoxification agent against exogenous xenobiotics to make the strain adaptable to the changeable environment (Probable).
