Reaction:
UDP-α-D-glucose + 13-hydroxydocosanoate → 13-β-D-glucosyloxydocosanoate + UDP + H⁺

Unofficial Reactions:
UDP-α-D-glucose + 13-β-D-glucosyloxydocosanoate → sophorosyloxydocosanoate + UDP + H⁺

Enzymes and Genes:
fatty acid-β-glucosyltransferase ( Pseudohyphozyma bogoriensis )

Summary:
13-β-D-Glucosyloxydocosanoate can also act as acceptor, leading to the formation by Candida bogoriensis of the extracellular glycolipid, hydroxydocosanoate sophoroside diacetate.
