Other name(s): |
UGASGT; UDP-D-glucuronate:soyasapogenol 3-O-D-glucuronosyltransferase |
Systematic name: |
UDP-α-D-glucuronate:soyasapogenol 3-O-D-glucuronosyltransferase (configuration-inverting) |
Comments: |
Requires a divalent ion, Mg2+ better than Mn2+, better than Ca2+. Also acts on soysapogenol A and E. |
