Finding of UDP-Glucose: Nicotinic Acid-N-glucosyltransferase Activity in Cultured Tobacco Cells and Its Properties

We have already identified N-(β-d-glucopyranosyl)nicotinic acid, which was isolated from cultured tobacco cells, as a novel niacin metabolite. The enzyme activity for the biosynthesis of this compound, UDP-glucose: nicotinic acid-N-glucosyltransferase, was found in cell-free extracts from cultured c...
