food industry | Citxadrus limonoid glucosyltransferase which is a key playxader for natural debitterness and anticancerous potenxadtial, can be utilized for metabolic engineering of Citxadrus limonoids to get rid of delayed bitterness problem along with enhanced limonoid glucoside molecules. The presence or absence of LGT can serve as a molecxadular indicator for determining the level of accumulaxadtion of limonoid glucoside and may reflect ultimately the possibility of delayed bitterness in available Citrus germplasm. Enhanced activity of LGT in citrus fruits may increase the glucoside level, which in turn will reduce the bitterness problem | Citrus unshiu |

medicine | Citxadrus limonoid metabolic engineering, and extraction as well as utilization of bioactive limonoids for health promoting and disease-preventing benefits. Limonoids are present in a very high amount in Citrus seeds and peel and thus their extractions can have commercial value. Limonoid aglycones and a mixture of limonoid glucosides are administered in human breast cancer cell lines. It has been demonstrated that limonoids are more potent than tamoxifen for estrogen-independent breast cancer cells and equally potent as tamoxifen for estrogen-dependent breast cancer cells. Effects and mechanisms of limonoids on cancer cells, overview. The Citrus limonoids such as obacunone, limonin, nomilxadin and their glucosides and some aglycones are found to have cytotoxic effects against lung, oral and skin cancers in animal test system and human breast cancer cells | Citrus unshiu |

evolution | limonoids are highly oxygenated triterpenes present mostly in Rutaceae and other limited plants of Meliaceae and Simaroubaceae, tissue distribution, overview. Limonoid glucosyltransferases belong to the family of glycosyltransferases. Two alleles (CitLGT1/ CitLGT2) of LGT at a single locus which are related to the dexadlayed bitterness in Citrus. The CitLGT2 differs from CitLGT1 by 15 nucleotide substitutions and these subxadstitutions are scattered throughout the coding region of the gene | Citrus unshiu |

additional information | inhibition of the enzyme acxadtivity by Cu2+ and Hg2+ ions suggests that thiol, carboxyl groups or histidine residues are directly or indirectly involved in the catalytic mechanism of the LGT enzyme. Inhibitory efxadfect of citraconic anhydride suggests the lysine or arginine may be involved in catalytic activity of pummelo LGT | Citrus maxima |
