Abstract excerpt
C-Glycosyltransferases (CGTs) catalyze the formation of C-glycosidic bonds for the biosynthesis of C-glycosides, but the underlying mechanism is unclear. This process improves the solubility and bioavailability of specialized metabolites, which play important roles in plant growth and development and represent rich resources for drug discovery. Here, we performed functional and structural studies of the CGT...
