Description

UDP-glucosyltransferase 74F2

Gene Summary

Induced by Salicylic acid, virus, fungus and bacteria.Involved in the tryptophan synthesis pathway. Independent of NPR1 for their induction by salicylic acid. UGT74F1 transfers UDP:glucose to salicylic acid (forming a glucoside (SAG) and a glucose ester (SGE)), benzoic acid, and athranilate in vitro. UGT74F2 shows a weak ability to catalyze the formation of the p-aminobenzoate-glucose ester in vitro. But, UGT75B1 appears to be the dominant pABA acylglucosyltransferase in vivo based on assays in leaves, flowers, and siliques. The true biological substrate(s) of UGT74F2 are not known, but mutant plants lacking UGT74F2 have a decreased level of SAG and SGE.
