potential biocatalysts from GT sequence information. To explore the potential of GTs as biocatalysts, their use for the production of terpenoid glycosides was investigated by using a microbial-based whole-cell biotransformation system capable of regenerating the cofactor, UDP-glucose. A high cell density fermentation system was shown to produce several hundred milligrams of a model terpenoid, geranyl-glucoside
