Enzymatic synthesis of a library of β-(1→4) hetero- d-glucose and d-xylose-based oligosaccharides employing cellodextrin phosphorylase
摘要:
Enzymatic synthesis was attempted of six trisaccharides and 14 tetrasaccharides comprising beta-(1-->4)-linked D-glucose and D-xylose residues, using cellodextrin phosphorylase (CDP, EC 2.4.1.49) as the enzyme catalyst, with alpha-D-glucose 1-phosphate (1) alpha-D-xylose 1-phosphate (2) as the donor substrates, and cellobiose (3), xylobiose (4), betaGlc-(l-->4)-Xyl (5), or betaXyl-(1-->4)-Glc (6) as the acceptor substrates. All enzymatic reactions were performed at pH 7.0 and the products purified by gel-filtration chromatography. We successfully synthesized all six hetero-trisaccharides and 10 of the 14 possible hetero-tetrasaccharides. It was not found possible to synthesize the four tetrasaccharides with a Xyl-->Glc sequence at their non-reducing ends employing this method. The stereochemistries of the isolated products were assessed by analysis of their 2D NMR spectra (DQF-COSY, TOCSY, HSQC, HMBC). confirming that all of the glycosidic bonds in the products were beta-(1-->4) linkages.

regioselectivity is different from that of typical acetylxylan esterases (AcXEs). In aqueous medium saturated with vinyl acetate, the CE‐2 enzymes catalyzed transacetylation to the same position, i.e., to the primary hydroxyl group of mono‐ and disaccharides. Xylose and xylooligosaccharides did not serve as acetyl group acceptors, therefore the CE‐2 enzymes appear to be 6‐O‐deacetylases.
