Chalcone 4'-O-glucosyltransferase (EC 2.4.1.286, 4'CGT) is an enzyme with systematic name UDP-alpha-D-glucose:2',4,4',6'-tetrahydroxychalcone 4'-O-beta-D-glucosyltransferase.[1] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

(1) UDP-alpha-D-glucose + 2',4,4',6'-tetrahydroxychalcone [math]\displaystyle{ \rightleftharpoons }[/math] UDP + 2',4,4',6'-tetrahydroxychalcone 4'-O-beta-D-glucoside
(2) UDP-alpha-D-glucose + 2',3,4,4',6'-pentahydroxychalcone [math]\displaystyle{ \rightleftharpoons }[/math] UDP + 2',3,4,4',6'-pentahydroxychalcone 4'-O-beta-D-glucoside

This enzyme is isolated from the plant Antirrhinum majus (snapdragon).
