Kojic acid was glucosylated to kojic acid 5- and 7-O-beta-D-glucopyranosides by cultured cells of Eucalyptus perriniana. The glucosylation was also performed effectively by the enzymatic reaction system using membrane-associated UDP-glucosyltransferase from the cells with addition of UDP-glucose. The production of the 5-O-D-glucoside occurred exclusively prior to that of the 7-O-glucoside in both systems. In the same manner, daidzein was converted W daidzin (daidzein 7-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside) by the enzymatic system. Here, we propose methods for the structural modification of phytoestrogen-related substances by enzymatic beta-glucosylation.
