Gene Details:
- Gene ID:
- Gene Symbol: FaGT2
- Gene Name: UDP-glucose glucosyltransferase 2
- Genome:
- Species: Fragaria ananassa
Functional Descriptions:
- FaGT2: a multifunctional enzyme from strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa) fruits involved in the metabolism of natural and xenobiotic compounds.
- Fragaria × ananassa UDP-glucose:cinnamate glucosyltransferase (FaGT2) catalyzes the formation of cinnamic acid and p-coumaric acid glucose esters during strawberry fruit ripening.
- FaGT2 was also capable of efficiently converting xenobiotic substances like the herbicide 2,4,5-trichlorophenol and the herbicide analogue 3,5-dichloro-4-hydroxybenzoic acid.
- The results suggest that FaGT2 is involved in the detoxification of xenobiotics in accordance to its induction by oxidative stress.
