Exploring the Catalytic Flexibility and Reversibility of Plant Glycosyltransferase HtUGT72AS1 for Glycodiversification of Phenolic Compounds.
Journal of agricultural and food chemistry(2023)
摘要
Plant bioactive metabolites such as flavonoids are usually present in glycosylated forms by the attachment of various sugar groups. In this study, a catalytically flexible and reversible glycosyltransferase (HtUGT72AS1) was cloned and characterized from Helleborus thibetanus. HtUGT72AS1 could directly accept six sugar donors (UDP-glucose/-arabinose/-galactose/-xylose/-N-acetylglucosamine/-rhamnose) to catalyze the 3-OH glycosylation of flavonols. It also catalyzed the 4' and 7-OH glycosylation of other types of flavonoids, which lacked the 3-OH group. Additionally, the HtUGT72AS1-catalyzed reaction was highly reversible when using 2-chloro-4-nitrophenyl glycosides as substrates, which could be used for one-pot or coupled production of bioactive glycosides. It is the first reported UGT for the synthesis of arabinosides and galactosides using a transglycosylation platform. Based on structural modeling and mutagenetic analysis, the mutation of Tyr377 to Ara enhanced the catalytic efficiency of HtUGT72AS1 toward UDP-N-acetylglucosamine, and the V146S mutant gained an improvement in the regioselectivity toward 7-OH of flavonoids.
