| Reactions |
(1) UDP-alpha-D-glucose + beta-D-glucosyl crocetin = Udp + beta-D- gentiobiosyl crocetin. (2) UDP-alpha-D-glucose + bis(beta-D-glucosyl) crocetin = Udp + beta-D- gentiobiosyl beta-D-glucosyl crocetin. (3) UDP-alpha-D-glucose + beta-D-gentiobiosyl beta-D-glucosyl crocetin = Udp + crocin. |
