Application

UDP-glucose has been used:

as a substrate in the enzymatic production of glycosides and their detection by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry.
as a substrate in the substrate screening and binding affinity measurements of the human CMP-Sia transporter.

Biochem/physiol Actions

UDP-glucose, acts as a precursor of UDP-galactose and UDP-glucuronate. In addition, it also aids in the biosynthesis of glucose-containing molecules such as oligosaccharides, polysaccharides, glycoproteins, and glycolipids in animals and some microorganisms . Several studies suggest that UDP-Glucose has the potential to act as a signaling molecule in plants beyond its classical metabolic functions . Uridine-5′-diphosphoglucose acts as an agonist to the purinergic receptor P2Y14 G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) receptor, involved in the activation of dendritic cells and glial cells. It can also activate G protein-coupled receptor 17 (GPR17) thereby inducing oligodendrocyte differentiation.

General description

Uridine5′-diphosphoglucose disodium salt is a nucleotide sugar consisting of a uracil base, ribose sugar, and two phosphate groups.

Enzymatic synthesis of novel corylifol A glucosides via a UDP-glycosyltransferase.

Nan Li et al.

Carbohydrate research, 446-447, 61-67 (2017-05-22)

Corylifol A, a member of the isoflavone subclass of isoflavonoids, has long been considered to have various biological activities. Here, we sought to synthesize corylifol A glucosides by the in vitro glucosylation reaction using the UDP-glycosyltransferase YjiC from Bacillus licheniformis DSM

An ortho C-methylation/O-glycosylation motif on a hydroxy-coumarin scaffold, selectively installed by biocatalysis.

Alexander Gutmann et al.

Organic & biomolecular chemistry, 15(37), 7917-7924 (2017-09-14)

Various bioactive natural products, like the aminocoumarin antibiotics novobiocin and coumermycin, exhibit an aromatic C-methyl group adjacent to a glycosylated phenolic hydroxyl group. Therefore, tailoring of basic phenolic scaffolds to contain the intricate C-methyl/O-glycosyl motif is of high interest for

Impaired fertility and motor function in a zebrafish model for classic galactosemia.

Jo M Vanoevelen et al.

Journal of inherited metabolic disease, 41(1), 117-127 (2017-09-16)

Classic galactosemia is a genetic disorder of galactose metabolism, caused by severe deficiency of galactose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase (GALT) enzyme activity due to mutations of the GALT gene. Its pathogenesis is still not fully elucidated, and a therapy that prevents chronic impairments

Functional analyses of OcRhS1 and OcUER1 involved in UDP-L-rhamnose biosynthesis in Ornithogalum caudatum.

Sen Yin et al.

Plant physiology and biochemistry : PPB, 109, 536-548 (2016-11-12)

UDP-L-rhamnose (UDP-Rha) is an important sugar donor for the synthesis of rhamnose-containing compounds in plants. However, only a few enzymes and their encoding genes involved in UDP-Rha biosynthesis are available in plants. Here, two genes encoding rhamnose synthase (RhS) and

Molecular identification of 1-Cys peroxiredoxin and anthocyanidin/flavonol 3-O-galactosyltransferase from proanthocyanidin-rich young fruits of persimmon (Diospyros kaki Thunb.).

Ayako Ikegami et al.

Planta, 230(4), 841-855 (2009-07-31)

Fruits of persimmon (Diospyros kaki Thunb.) accumulate large amounts of proanthocyanidins (PAs) in the early stages of development. Astringent (A)-type fruits remain rich in soluble PAs even after they reach full-mature stage, whereas non-astringent (NA)-type fruits lose these compounds before
