Glycosylation of resveratrol was carried out by using the amylosucrase of Deinococcus geothermalis, and the glycosylated products were tested for their solubility, chemical stability, and biological activities. We synthesized and identified these two major glycosylated products as resveratrol-4'-O- α-glucoside and resveratrol-3-O-α-glucoside by nuclear magnetic resonance analysis with a ratio of 5:1. The water solubilities of the two resveratrol-α-glucoside isomers (α-piceid isomers) were approximately 3.6 and 13.5 times higher than that of β-piceid and resveratrol, respectively, and they were also highly stable in buffered solutions. The antioxidant activity of the α-piceid isomers, examined by radical scavenging capability, showed it to be initially lower than that of resveratrol, but as time passed, the α-piceid isomers' activity reached a level similar to that of resveratrol. The α- piceid isomers also showed better inhibitory activity against tyrosinase and melanin synthesis in B16F10 melanoma cells than β-piceid. The cellular uptake of the α-piceid isomers, which was assessed by ultra-performance liquid chromatography (UPLC) analysis of the cell-free extracts of B16F10 melanoma cells, demonstrated that the glycosylated form of resveratrol was gradually converted to resveratrol inside the cells. These results indicate that the enzymatic glycosylation of resveratrol could be a useful method for enhancing the bioavailability of resveratrol.

The 62nd residue of glycosyltransferase UGTBL1 was identified as a "hotspot" for glycosylation at 3-OH of resveratrol. Via semi-rational design including structure-guided alanine scanning and saturation mutations, the mutation I62G significantl
Creating a Water-Soluble Resveratrol-Based Antioxidant by Site-Selective Enzymatic Glucosylation

The phytochemical resveratrol (trans-3,5,4′-trihydroxystilbene) has drawn great interest as health-promoting food ingredient and potential therapeutic agent. However, resveratrol shows vanishingly low water solubility; this limits its uptake and complicates the development of effective therapeutic forms. Glycosylation should be useful to enhance resveratrol solubility, with the caveat that unselective attachment of sugars could destroy the molecule's antioxidant activity. UGT71A15 (a uridine 5′-diphosphate α-D-glucose-dependent glucosyltransferase from apple) was used to synthesize resveratrol 3,5-β-D-diglucoside; this was about 1700-fold more water-soluble than the unglucosylated molecule (～0.18 mM), yet retained most of the antioxidant activity. Resveratrol 3-β-D-glucoside, which is the naturally abundant form of resveratrol, was a practical substrate for perfect site-selective conversion into the target diglucoside in quantitative yield (gL-1 concentration).
