As fossil raw materials are diminishing, and as the pressure on our environment is
strengthening, the progressive switch of industry toward renewable feedstock emerges as …

Covering: July 2003 to June 2005This review covers advances and developments in the use
of enzymes in synthetic mono-and oligosaccharide chemistry. Particular attention is paid to …

Rhamnose containing chemicals (RCCs) are widely occurred in plants and bacteria and are
known to possess important bioactivities. However, few of them were available using the …

Glycosynthases are active-site mutants of glycoside hydrolases that catalyse glycosyl
transfer using suitable activated donor substrates without competing product hydrolysis (SM …

β-Fructofuranosidase from Arthrobacter arilaitensis NJEM01 showed high activity and
stability in 15–25%(v/v) methanol, 15–20%(v/v) DMSO, and 15–20%(v/v) ethanol with 91.2 …

Glucansucrases (GS) are α-transglucosylases involved in α-glucan biosynthesis. These
enzymes have been classified as glycosyltransferases by the Enzyme Commission (EC 2.4 …

Chemoenzymatic applications of glycosidases and glycosynthases employing
transglycosylation reactions are outlined. Addressed are the absolute stereospecificity as …

We report the enzymatic synthesis of α‐d‐glucopyranosyl‐(1→ 4)‐α‐l‐rhamnopyranoside
and α‐d‐glucopyranosyl‐(1→ 3)‐α‐l‐rhamnopyranoside by using a wild‐type …

The demand for medicines that treat illnesses formerly associated with the developed world
is expanding at a time when some countries are becoming increasingly affluent. As a result …

A simple “heavy” lipophilic tag readily prepared from inexpensive gallic acid can greatly
simplify the purification steps in oligosaccharide synthesis through liquid‐liquid extraction …
