Abstract: The prenylation of flavonoids is a main type of structural modification and can endow flavonoids with greater bioactivity and bioavailability. A soluble prenyltransferase (NgFPT) gene from Nocardiopsis gilva was cloned, expressed and characterized in Escherichia coli. The optimal activity of NgFPT was at pH 7.5 and 30 °C. The activity of NgFPT was significantly enhanced by Ca
