Sysname
UDP-alpha-D-glucose:protopanaxadiol-type ginsenoside 3-O-glucosyltransferase (configuration-retaining)
Reaction(IUBMB)
(1) UDP-alpha-D-glucose + (20S)-protopanaxadiol = UDP + (20S)-ginsenoside Rh2 [RN:R12383];
(2) UDP-alpha-D-glucose + ginsenoside C-K = UDP + ginsenoside F2 [RN:R12384]
Reaction(KEGG)
R12383 R12384
Substrate
UDP-alpha-D-glucose [CPD:C00029];
(20S)-protopanaxadiol [CPD:C20715];
ginsenoside C-K [CPD:C22127]
Product
UDP [CPD:C00015];
(20S)-ginsenoside Rh2 [CPD:C22128];
ginsenoside F2 [CPD:C20779]
Comment
The enzyme, characterized from the plant Panax ginseng, transfers a glucosyl moiety to the free C-3-OH group of (20S)-protopanaxadiol and ginsenoside C-K.
