Anthraquinones are secondary metabolites of plants and are widely distributed in vari-ous species. They are known to exhibit a wide range of biological activities, including anticancer, anti-inflammation, antioxidant, antibacterial, anti-damage, and anti-osteoporosis. Anthraquinones are generally lipophilic, which results in relatively low solubility and bioavailability. These limita-tions can be addressed through enzymatic reactions such as glycosylation and hydroxylation. In this study, we attempted the glycosylation of two anthraquinone compounds, anthraflavic acid and xanthopurpurin, using microbial UDP-glycosyltransferase UGT-1. UGT-1 could catalyze the O-glu-cosylation of anthraquinones to form glucoside-type products, which were confirmed by HPLC and high-resolution LC-MS analyses. This study demonstrates that glycosyltransferase UGT-1 could be a good candidate for producing modified anthraquinones with poogical activtential biolities

Journal of Hyojeong Academia aims to serve as a global platform where researchers and scholars of various disciplines can contribute ideas for our sustainable global community of Co‐existence, Co‐prosperity, and Co‐righteousness. The journal is a multidisciplinary, open‐access, internationally peer‐reviewed
academic journal, and it invites all areas of research conducted in the spirit of post materialism including studies centering on God, studies unifying religions and
sciences, and studies on all aspects of Co‐existence, Co‐prosperity, and Co‐righteousness.
