In enzymology a 12-diacylglycerol 3-glucosyltransferase (EC 2.4.1.157) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reactionUDP-glucose + 12-diacylglycerol UDP + 3-D-glucosyl-12-diacylglycerolThus the two substrates of this enzyme are UDP-glucose and 12-diacylglycerol whereas its two products are UDP and 3-D-glucosyl-12-diacylglycerol.This enzyme belongs to the family of glycosyltransferases specifically the hexosyltransferases.
