UDP-glucose: Sterol glucosyltransferase and a steryl glucoside acyltransferase activity in amyloplast membranes from potato tubers
Envelope membranes were isolated from potato tuber amyloplast by a discontinuous sucrose density gradient and high speed centrifugation. These membranes catalyzed the transfer of [14C]glucose from UDP-[14C]glucose to endogenous sterol acceptors and, in turn, catalyzed the esterification of steryl gl...
