Flavonoid glycosides have shown many pharmacological activities in clinical studies. However, the main way to obtain flavonoid glycosides is to extract and separate them from plants, which wastes both time and resources. Here, we identified the <i>O</i>-glycosyltransferase (UGTs) TwUGT3 from <i>Tripterygium wilfordii</i> and analyzed its bioinformatics. First, the enzyme was found to utilize phloretin and uridine diphosphate glucose (UDPG) as substrates to produce an acid-tolerant glucoside. The ...[more]
