Description

Glucosyltransferases (GTases) can be utilized as enzymes to transfer glucose to another organic molecule (aglycon) establishing glycosidic linkages. UDP-glucose dependent GTases are part of the enzyme family of glycosyltransferases, they are versatile tools in glucosylation reactions. Our kit contains 8 lyophilized enzymes, which cover a wide range of different aglycons for the synthesis of glucosides: aliphatic, terpene, aromatic and heterocyclic glucosides.Overall the process of glycosylation is highly beneficial to both the pharma and cosmetic industries. Particularly the ability of GTases to transfer glucose to organic molecules (aglycon), is a sought-after activity for water-soluble formulations in the cosmetic industry. This is because the addition of a sugar moiety can result in a more hydrophilic product. Not only this but glucosyltransferase can be utilized to synthesize aliphatic, terpene, aromatic and heterocyclic glucosides, used in flavour or fragrance applications. In the pharma industry, glycosylating active pharmaceutical ingredients can improve the solubility of active ingredients, allowing the possibility for patient to take medication in a liquid form. This would be more accessible to those patients who find taking tablets difficult.Contact our enzyme experts for custom glucoside synthesis services, based on our full library of glycosyltransferases.
