2)-β-D-glucoside]
Reaction: UDP-L-rhamnose + a flavanone 7-O-glucoside = UDP + a flavanone 7-O-[β-L-rhamnosyl-(12)-β-D-glucoside]
See diagram for reaction with 7-O-glucosides of naringenin or apigenin or luteolin.
Other name(s): UDP-rhamnose:flavanone-7-O-glucoside-2"-O-rhamnosyltransferase; 12 UDP-rhamnosyltransferase
