Enzymatic Synthesis of Quercetin Monoglucopyranoside and Maltooligosaccharides

Nat Prod Commun. 2015 Jun;10(6):949-50.

Abstract

Quercetin 3-O-β-monoglucopyranoside and quercetin 3-O-β-maltooligosaccharide were synthesized from quercetin using glucosyltransferase-3 from Phytolacca americana and cyclodextrin glucanotransferase.
