Soyasaponin III rhamnosyltransferase explained

Soyasaponin III rhamnosyltransferase
Ec Number:2.4.1.273

Soyasaponin III rhamnosyltransferase (UGT91H4, GmSGT3 (gene)) is an enzyme with systematic name UDP-rhamnose:soyasaponin III rhamnosyltransferase.[1] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction:

UDP-rhamnose + soyasaponin III

\rightleftharpoons

UDP + soyasaponin I

Part of the biosynthetic pathway for soyasaponins.
