Peng George Wang* Department of Chemistry, Wayne State Uni Versity Detroit, Michigan 48202 Recei Ved October 27, 2000 Application of carbohydrates in modern medicine is limited by the high cost of synthesis of most biologically important glycoconjugates. It is generally recognized that glycosyltransferasecatalyzed glycosylation is one of the most practical approaches. 1

The carbohydrate chains decorating cell membranes and secreted proteins participate in a range of important biological processes. However, their ultimate significance and possible therapeutic potential have not been fully explored due to the lack of economical methods for their production. This study is an example of the use of a genetically engineered bacterial strain in the preparation of diverse oligosaccharides. Based on an ex vivo biosynthetic pathway, an artificial gene cluster was constructed by linking the genes of five associated enzymes on a plasmid vector. This plasmid was inserted into the E. coli NM522 strain to form globotriose-producing cells (‘superbug’ pLDR20-CKTUF). The specific strain was conveniently applied to the synthesis of globotriose trisaccharide and its derivatives, as potential neutralizers for Shiga toxin. This work demonstrates a novel and economical method for generating ligand diversity for carbohydrate drug development.

A truncated alpha-(1-->4)-galactosyltransferase (LgtC) gene from Neisseria meningitidis was cloned. The recombinant glycosyltransferase was expressed in Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3) strain with high specific activity (5 units/mg protein). Its acceptor specificity was carefully characterized. Then the purified enzyme was utilized in highly efficient syntheses of globotriose and a variety of alpha-(1-->4)-galactosylated derivatives as potential antibacterial agents.

Herein we report the practical chemo enzymaticsynthesis of trisaccharide and derivatives of iGb3 and Gb3, and a novel purification process using immobilized yeast to remove the monosaccharide from the reaction mixture. High purity oligosaccharide compounds were achieved in largescale. This study represents a facile enzymaticsynthesis of and novel purification process of oligosaccharide.
