cyanohydrin beta-glucosyltransferase EC#: 2.4.1.85; ChemWhat Code: 1377364

Product Name cyanohydrin beta-glucosyltransferase
Example Structure Example Structure of cyanohydrin beta-glucosyltransferase EC#: 2.4.1.85
Synonyms cyanohydrin glucosyltransferase, cyanohydrin glycosyltransferase, glucosyltransferase, uridine diphosphoglucose-p-hydroxymandelonitrile, mandelonitrile glucosyltransferase, sbHMNGT, UDP-glucose-p-hydroxymandelonitrile glucosyltransferase, UDP-glucose:p-hydroxymandelonitrile-O-glucosyltransferase, UDP-glucosyltransferase, UGT85B1, uridine diphosphoglucose-cyanohydrin glucosyltransferase, uridine diphosphoglucose-p-hydroxymandelonitrile glucosyltransferase, uridine diphosphoglucose:aldehyde cyanohydrin beta-glucosyltransferase
EC Number 2.4.1.85
CAS Registry Number 55354-52-4
Comments Acts on a wide range of substrates in vitro, including cyanohydrins, terpenoids, phenolics, hexanol derivatives and plant hormones, in a regiospecific manner [3]. This enzyme is involved in the biosynthesis of the cyanogenic glucoside dhurrin in sorghum, along with EC 1.14.14.36, tyrosine N-monooxygenase and EC 1.14.14.37, 4-hydroxyphenylacetaldehyde oxime monooxygenase. This reaction prevents the disocciation and release of toxic hydrogen cyanide [3].
