title: Sarsasapogenin 3β-glucosyltransferase
text: In enzymology, a sarsasapogenin 3β-glucosyltransferase is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are UDP-glucose and sarsasapogenin [(3β,5β,25S)-spirostan-3-ol], whereas its two products are UDP and sarsasapogenin 3-O-β-D-glucoside. The enzyme was first isolated from the root of the common asparagus. It is specific for substrate sterols with the uncommon 5β-configuration, that is with a cis-linkage between the A and B rings of the steroid nucleus.
