1 The assay confirmed that caffeic acid as the preferred substrate when compared with other hydroxycinnamates, although UGT71C1 also exhibited substantial activity towards flavonoid substrates, known to have structural features that can be recognized by many different UGTs. hydroxycinnamates UDP-glucosyl transferase 71C1 Arabidopsis thaliana
2 The assay confirmed that caffeic acid as the preferred substrate when compared with other hydroxycinnamates, although UGT71C1 also exhibited substantial activity towards flavonoid substrates, known to have structural features that can be recognized by many different UGTs. Flavonoids UDP-glucosyl transferase 71C1 Arabidopsis thaliana
3 The level of expression of UGT71C1 was enhanced considerably in several lines, leading to a higher level of the corresponding enzyme activity and a higher level of caffeoyl-3- O -glucoside. caffeoyl-3- o -glucoside UDP-glucosyl transferase 71C1 Arabidopsis thaliana
