NCBI Protein Information
Uridine diphosphate glycosyltransferase 74E2
NCBI Summary
Encodes a UDP-glucosyltransferase, UGT74E2, that acts on IBA (indole-3-butyric acid) and affects auxin homeostasis. The transcript and protein levels of this enzyme are strongly induced by H2O2 and may allow integration of ROS (reactive oxygen species) and auxin signaling. This enzyme can also transfer glycosyl groups to several compounds related to the explosive TNT when this synthetic compound is taken up from the environment.

UniProt Comments
Glucosyltransferase that acts on the auxin indole-3-butyric acid (IBA). Mediates abiotic stress responses and stress-induced morphological adaptations by regulating auxin homeostasis. Possesses low activity in vitro on jasmonate (JA) and the synthetic auxin analog naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA).
