Trifolin is a chemical compound. It is the

Camptotheca acuminata,[1] in Euphorbia condylocarpa[2] or in Consolida oliveriana.[3]

Kaempferol 3-O-galactosyltransferase is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction:

UDP-galactose + kaempferol → UDP + kaempferol 3-O-beta-D-galactoside (trifolin).[4] It can also be found in seedlings of Vigna mungo.[5]
