However, the genes that catalyze the glycosylation of multitype metabolites in tea plants remain unclear. Here, 180 uridine diphosphate-dependent glycosyltransferases that may be involved in the biosynthesis of glycosylated secondary metabolites were identified from the National Center for Biotechnology Information public databases. Subsequently, CsUGT74Y1 was screened through phylogenetic analysis and gene expression profiling. Compositional and induced expression analyses revealed that CsUGT74Y1 was highly expressed in tea tender shoots and was induced under biotic and abiotic stress conditions. In vitro enzymatic assays revealed that rCsUGT74Y1 encoded a multifunctional UGT that catalyzed the glycosylation of flavonoids, phenolic acids, lignins, and auxins. Furthermore, CsUGT74Y1-overexpressing Arabidopsis thaliana exhibited enhanced growth and accumulation of flavonol and auxin glucosides. Our findings provide insights into identifying specific UGTs and demonstrate that CsUGT74Y1 is a multifunctional UGT that promotes plant development.23:T4b7,The C242T polymorphism of the CYBA gene that encodes p22phox, a component of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate oxidase, has been found to modulate reactive oxygen species (ROS) production. Oxidative stress is thought to play a pivotal role in the pathophysiology of Alzheimer's disease (AD), which is manifested as increased availability of ROS because of an imbalanced redox state. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate potential associations of the p22phox C242T polymorphism with the risk of late-onset AD (LOAD) in a northern Han Chinese population. Patients with LOAD (n = 276) and 320 control subjects were recruited for the study. Polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism was used to detect the genotypes. No significant differences were found between LOAD and p22phox C242T polymorphism, but a significant association was obtained in the genotype and allele distributions of p22phox C242T between LOAD patients and controls in apolipoprotein E (ApoE) ϵ4 carriers. These results suggested that p22phox C242T polymorphism has a possible role in changing the genetic susceptibility to LOAD in ApoE ϵ4 carriers of this northern Han Chinese population.
