2.4.1.104 |
Accepted name: |
o-dihydroxycoumarin 7-O-glucosyltransferase |
Reaction: |
UDP-glucose + 7,8-dihydroxycoumarin = UDP + daphnin |
Other name(s): |
uridine diphosphoglucose-o-dihydroxycoumarin 7-O-glucosyltransferase; UDP-glucose:o-dihydroxycoumarin glucosyltransferase |
Systematic name: |
UDP-glucose:7,8-dihydroxycoumarin 7-O-β-D-glucosyltransferase |
Comments: |
Converts the aglycone daphetin into daphnin and, more slowly, esculetin into cichoriin, umbelliferone into skimmin, hydrangetin into hydrangin and scopoletin into scopolin. |

2.5.1.138 |
Accepted name: |
coumarin 8-geranyltransferase |
Reaction: |
(1) geranyl diphosphate + umbelliferone = diphosphate + 8-geranylumbelliferone (2) geranyl diphosphate + esculetin = diphosphate + 8-geranylesculetin |
Glossary: |
geranyl diphosphate = (2E)-3,7-dimethylocta-2,6-dien-1-yl diphosphate
esculetin = 6,7-dihydroxy-1-benzopyran-2-one = 6,7-dihydroxycoumarin
umbelliferone = 7-hydroxy-1-benzopyran-2-one = 7-hydroxycoumarin |
Other name(s): |
ClPT1 |
Systematic name: |
geranyl-diphosphate:umbelliferone 8-geranyltransferase |
Comments: |
The enzyme, characterized from the plant Citrus limon, is specific for geranyl diphosphate as a prenyl donor. It also has low activity with the coumarins 5,7-dihydroxycoumarin and 5-methoxy-7-hydroxycoumarin. |
