Highly regioselective biotransformation of ginsenoside Rb2 into compound Y and compound K by β-glycosidase purified from Armillaria mellea mycelia

Conclusionβ-Glycosidase purified from A. mellea mycelium can be efficiently used to transform Rb2 into C-Y and C-K. To our best knowledge, this is the first result of transformation from Rb2 into C-Y and C-K by basidiomycete mushroom enzyme.
