Research Abstract |
N-Acetyllactosamine 1(Gal beta1-4GlcNAe)is known as a representative disaccharide which is itself important as a core component in oligosaccharide moieties of glycoproteins and glycolipids. Owing to the growing need for substantial amount of 1 as a biomaterial, we have developed a practical route for the synthetic of 1 from lactose and Nacetylglucosamine(GlcNAc), utilizing the transglycosylation reaction through beta-D-galactosidase from Bacillus circulans. Furthermore, utilization of the transglycosylation by B. circulans beta-D-galactosidase led to the synthesis of beta-(1-4)linked disaccharides and trisaccharides containing a 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-D-hexose. The derivative s of GlcNAe and GalNAc were used as acceptors for the preparations. The enzyme reaction was efficient enough to allow us to perform the one pot preparation of beta-(1-4)-linked galactosyl-oligosaccharide from lactose. With the enzyme, D-galacosyl transfer occurred preferentially at the C-4 position of GlcNAc and of GalNAc, respectively, of the configuration of the hydroxyl group.
