Glycosylation of flavonoid play crucial roles in stabilization of antocyanins and cyanidins; storage of flavonoid and terpenoids; and regulation of hormones. In addition, glycosylation has been recognized as one of the important mechanisms for detoxification of exogenous compounds. Here in this research, we have metabolically engineered the E. coli BL21DE3 (Δ pgi mutant) host to generate four different engineered host to produce glycosylated flavonoid. E. coli BL21DE3 (Δ pgi mutant) was engineered by integration of GalU, expression of CalS8 (dehydrogenase) and CalS9 (decarboxylase) together by cloning in pDuet/ampr vector and expression of four different 3-O-glycosyltransferase and 7-O- glycosyltransferase gene from Arabidopsis thaliana. Engineered hosts are expected to produce glucosyl as well as xylosyl glycosylated flavonoids which are characterized by HPLC as well as LC-MS analysis.
