Exploiting the aglycon promiscuity of glycosyltransferase Bs-YjiC from Bacillus subtilis and its application in synthesis of glycosides

•Glycosyltransferase Bs-YjiC from B. subtilis 168 was expressed in E. coli.•Bs-YjiC showed aglycon promiscuity toward 19 structurally diverse compounds.•Twenty-four glycosylated products of 17 aglycons were purified from scale-up reactions.•Bs-YjiC could catalyse the formation of O-, N-, and S-linka...
