Summary Glycosyltransferases (GTs)(EC 2.4. xy) catalyze the transfer of sugar moieties to a
wide range of acceptor molecules, such as sugars, lipids, proteins, nucleic acids, antibiotics …

UDP-Glycosyltransferases (UGTs) catalyze the transfer of nucleotide-activated sugars to
specific acceptors, among which the GT1 family enzymes are well-known for their function in …

Folates, also known as B9 vitamins, serve as donors and acceptors in one-carbon (C1)
transfer reactions. The latter are involved in synthesis of many important biomolecules, such …

Plant immune response following pathogenic infection is regulated by plant hormones, and
salicylic acid (SA) and its sugar conjugates play important roles in establishing basal …

Folates are essential cofactors for one-carbon transfer reactions and are needed in the diets
of humans and animals. Because plants are major sources of dietary folate, plant folate …

ABSTRACT Hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2) operates as a signaling molecule in eukaryotes,
but the specificity of its signaling capacities remains largely unrevealed. Here, we analyzed …

Lignocellulosic biomass is utilized as a renewable feedstock in various agro‐industrial
activities. Lignin is an aromatic, hydrophobic and mildly branched polymer integrally …

Genetic engineering of roses and other plants of floricultural importance to give them a truly
blue petal color is arguably one of the holy grails of plant biotechnology. Toward this goal …
