Gallate 1-beta-glucosyltransferase (EC 2.4.1.136) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

 
 
 
Rightward reaction arrow
 
 
 

The two substrates of this enzyme characterised from oak leaves are gallic acid and UDP-glucose. Its products are glucogallin and uridine diphosphate (UDP).[1][2]

This enzyme belongs to the family of glycosyltransferases, specifically the hexosyltransferases. The systematic name of this enzyme class is UDP-glucose:gallate beta-D-glucosyltransferase. Other names in common use include UDP-glucose-vanillate 1-glucosyltransferase, UDPglucose:vanillate 1-O-glucosyltransferase, and UDPglucose:gallate glucosyltransferase.[3]
