In enzymology, a limonoid glucosyltransferase (EC 2.4.1.210) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction.

UDP-glucose + limonin glucosyl-limonin + UDP

Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are UDP-glucose and limonin, whereas its two products are glucosyl-limonin and UDP.

This enzyme belongs to the family of glycosyltransferases, specifically the hexosyltransferases. The systematic name of this enzyme class is uridine diphosphoglucose-limonoid glucosyltransferase.
