Abstract
Enzymatic glucosylation of unnatural products by natural glycosyltransferases (GTs) has great potential in creating novel and bioactive glucosides. A new GT (AaGT3) from Aloe arborescens exhibited catalytic promiscuity and high efficiency to diverse unnatural naphthols. By combing the substrate flexibility and catalytic reversibility of AaGT3, a cost-effective enzymatic approach to novel and bioactive unnatural glucosides was established. These studies indicate the significant potential of promiscuous natural GTs in synthesis of unnatural bioactive glucosides in drug discovery.
