Synthesis of ε-Viniferin Glycosides by Glucosyltransferase from Phytolacca americana and their Inhibitory Activity on Histamine Release from Rat Peritoneal Mast Cells
Glycosylation of (+)-ε-viniferin was investigated using glucosyltransferase from Phytolacca americana (PaGT3) as a biocatalyst. (+)-ε-Viniferin was converted by PaGT3 into its 4b- and 13b-β-D-glucosides, the inhibitory activities on histamine release from rat peritoneal mast cells of which were higher than that of (+)-ε-viniferin.
