The present invention relates generally to the identification novel UDP-glucosyltransferases enzymes having specific activity towards cannabinoid compounds. The present invention further relates generally to the use of novel UGT enzymes having specific activity towards cannabinoid compounds to generate water-soluble cannabinoid glycoside compounds.

Recombinant microorganisms are disclosed that produce steviol glycosides and have altered expression of one or more endogenous transporter or transcription factor genes, or that overexpress one or more heterologous transporters, leading to increased excretion of steviol glycosides of interest.
