Abstract
The following reaction leading to the synthesis of the trisaccharide umbelliferose was demonstrated in an enzyme preparation from leaves of Aegopodium podagraria L.: sucrose + UDP-gal-(14)C --> umbelliferose-(14)C + UDP. Neither galactinol nor galactose 1-phosphate could replace UDP-gal. Among 10 different sugars tested only sucrose was a suitable galatosyl acceptor.Entities:
