Abstract: MAIN CONCLUSION Two UDP-glycosyltransferases from Panax japonicus var. major were identified, and the biosynthetic pathways of three oleanane-type ginsenosides (chikusetsusaponin IVa, ginsenoside Ro, zingibroside R1) were elucidated. Chikusetsusaponin IVa and ginsenoside Ro are primary active… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.biotechadv.2019.04.016
Abstract: Triterpenoid saponins are naturally occurring structurally diverse glycosides of triterpenes that are widely distributed among plant species. Great interest has been expressed by pharmaceutical and agriculture industries for the glycosylation of triterpenes. Such modifications alter… read more here.
