An enzymatic approach to configurationally raretrans-androsteronyl-α-glucoside and Its potential anticancer application
摘要:
Enzymatic glycosylation of sterols/steroids with glycosyltransferase HP0421 shows protein plasticity on generation of configurationally rare steryl‐α‐glucosides. Investigation of trans‐androsteronyl‐α‐glucoside on tamoxifen‐treated MCF‐7 breast cancer cells shows dose‐dependent depression of cell viability and enhanced drug effectiveness, illustrating a new avenue for the production of novel steryl‐α‐glucosides with useful biological activities.
