[Efficient synthesis of salidroside from tyrosol based on UDPG recycling system].

Salidroside is a functional ingredient with wide applications in food and pharmaceutical fields. It is conventionally produced by extraction from plants, the application of which is limited by the scarcity of raw materials and cumbersome process. This study achieved the efficient production of salidroside by biosynthesis with tyrosol as the substrate. While utilizing glycosyltransferases for tyrosol glycosylation, we introduced sucrose synthase to construct the uridine diphosphate glucose (UDPG) recycling system. The glycosyltransferase UGT33 and sucrose synthase
