Cinnamate beta-D-glucosyltransferase () is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
The two substrates of this enzyme characterised from sweet potato are cinnamic acid and UDP-glucose. Its products are 1-O-trans-cinnamoyl-β-D-glucopyranose and uridine diphosphate (UDP).
This enzyme belongs to the family of glycosyltransferases, specifically the hexosyltransferases. The systematic name of this enzyme class is UDP-glucose:trans-cinnamate beta-D-glucosyltransferase. Other names in common use include uridine diphosphoglucose-cinnamate glucosyltransferase, and UDPG:t-cinnamate glucosyltransferase.
