Abstract:
... Currently, increasing attention is being paid to conjugated mycotoxins in plant-based foods because of their assumed bioavailability and health risks. However, analytical standards for most mycotoxin glycosides are not available and risk assessment processes have not yet been completed because of the lack of occurrence data. Our study presents a method for efficient pre-concentration of type A tri ...
... Finding functional preparations that could improve the bioavailability of calcium is one of the keys to solving calcium deficiency. In this study, glycosylated peptides-calcium chelate with calcium absorption promoting activity, named XOS-CSPHs-Ca-MR, was prepared from Crimson Sapper scales protein hydrolysates (CSPHs) and xylooligosaccharides (XOS) via Maillard reaction. Results showed that amino ...
... Major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules play a critical role in the immune response of vertebrate animals by presenting foreign antigens to T lymphocytes. In this study, we first cloned and identified a classical and a novel nonclassical MHC I α molecules from Japanese eel (Anguilla japonica), named as AjMHC I-UBA and AjMHC I-L, respectively. The full-length cDNA of AjMHC I-UBA contains a ...
... Microcapsules can provide better protection for probiotics during freeze-drying and gastrointestinal digestion. This study aims to investigate the effect of microencapsulation using the product of the Maillard reaction of whey protein and carboxymethylated dextran (CM. dex) on the viability of Lactobacillus plantarum LP90 (Lₚ) as related to freeze-drying, gastrointestinal tolerability and storage ...
... Advances in synthetic carbohydrate chemistry have dramatically improved access to common glycans. However, many novel methods still fail to adequately address challenges associated with chemical glycosylation and glycan synthesis. Since a challenge of glycosylation has remained, scientists have been frequently returning to the traditional glycosyl donors. This review is dedicated to glycosyl halid ...
... A novel protocol is established for the long-standing challenge of stereoselective geminal bisglycosylations of saccharides. The merger of PPh₃ as a traceless glycosidic leaving group and 1,2-boronate migration enables the simultaneous introduction of C–C and C–B bonds at the anomeric stereogenic center of furanoses and pyranoses. The power of this method is showcased by a set of site-selective mo ...
... The activation of alkyne-installed glycosyl donors with dual acidic metal catalysts were studied. Lewis and/or π acidity-activated pathways were observed for alkynyl carbonate-, ester-, and ether-type donors, and π acidity-promoted reaction mode afforded higher efficiency and yields. The activation mode for a certain metal catalyst is determined by the nature of catalysts itself, protecting groups ...

Abstract:
... The reverse orthogonal strategy was invented in 2011 in an attempt to address drawbacks of other strategies for glycan assembly. Different from the classical orthogonal approach that relies on the orthogonality of leaving groups, the reverse strategy is based on orthogonal protecting groups that could be removed during the glycosylation step. This strategy remained largely unexplored due to only o ...
... A catalytic glycosyl fluoride activation system using the GeCl₂·dioxane–AgBF₄ combination was developed, which involves a reversible activation of the anomeric C–F bond by a [Ge(II)–Cl]⁺ cation and a reversible chloride ion transfer between Ge(II) and glycosyl cations. This catalytic glycosylation system is easy to operate, proceeds at room temperature, and offers a broad scope of substrates. ...
... Glycoproteins bearing mucin domains serve important biological functions, yet they are understudied due to their dense glycosylation. Malaker et al. describe a new tool that will advance the capture, identification, and prediction of new members of the ‘mucinome’. ...
glycosylation, etc ; Acinetobacter baumannii; polysaccharides; Show all 3 Subjects
Abstract:
... Chemical synthetic efforts have resulted in the preparation of the assigned tetrasaccharide repeating subunit from the Acinetobacter baumannii KL4-associated capsular polysaccharide. A convergent synthetic strategy hinging on a 1,2-cis-selective [2+2] glycosylation to generate the fully protected tetrasaccharide was key to the success of this synthesis. ...
glycosylation, etc ; glycoconjugates; glycosides; humans; polysaccharides; Show all 5 Subjects
Abstract:
... Human glycans are primarily composed of nine common sugar building blocks. On the other hand, several hundred monosaccharides have been discovered in bacteria and most of them are not readily available. The ability to access these rare sugars and the corresponding glycoconjugates can facilitate the studies of various fundamentally important biological processes in bacteria, including interactions ...

Abstract:
... Acetimidates, a valuable intermediate has been well explored as versatile synthon in a number of organic transformations particularly as suitable donors in glycosylation reactions. Herein, we explored acetimidates to furnish high-to-excellent yield of diverse glycosylated esters under one-pot mild reaction condition. The commercially available trichloroacetonitrile is implemented for the activatio ...

Abstract:
... O‐linked modification of nuclear and cytosolic proteins with monosaccharides is essential in all eukaryotes. While many aspects of this post‐translational modification are highly conserved, there are striking differences between plants and the animal kingdom. In animals, dynamic cycling of O‐GlcNAc is established by two essential single copy enzymes, the O‐GlcNAc transferase OGT and O‐GlcNAc hydro ...

Abstract:
... There has been a recent surge of interest in producing oligosaccharides by transglycosylation. In enzyme-catalyzed transglycosylations that follow the Ping Pong bi bi mechanism, there are three competing reactions: the transglycosylation itself, primary hydrolysis (i.e. of the initial donor molecule) and secondary hydrolysis (i.e. of the transglycosylation product). In kinetically controlled trans ...

Abstract:
... N-linked glycosylation is one of the most important post translational modification of proteins. Various analytical techniques are used for the structural identification of the N-glycans released from proteins through various enzymatic and chemical methods. Although very few side-reaction products are generated during the enzymatic release of N-glycans, this method is expensive and suitable only f ...

Abstract:
... In mammalian development, oscillatory activation of Notch signaling is required for segmentation clock function during somitogenesis. Notch activity oscillations are synchronized between neighboring cells in the presomitic mesoderm (PSM) and have a period that matches the rate of somite formation. Normal clock function requires cyclic expression of the Lunatic fringe (LFNG) glycosyltransferase, as ...

Abstract:
... The first total synthesis of vanilloloside, calleryanin, and a series of naturally occurring ω-esters of vanilloloside was realized through direct glycosylation of vanillin-based aglycones or late-stage derivatization of vanilloloside. All aglycones and their fragments were synthesized from vanillin as the sole aromatic precursor. Subsequently, these intermediates were used to construct various va ...

Abstract:
... The N-glycosylation is an important bioprocess in plant. Monosaccharide composition-level characterization at the intact N-glycopeptides has been extensively reported, yet structure-specific study to resolve multiple sequence structures of a single composition is still lacking. Here, we present a comprehensive structure-specific identification of intact N-glycopeptides of Arabidopsis with both HIL ...

Abstract:
... Macrocyclic glycoazobenzenes, as an emerging class of photoswitchable chiral macrocyclic compounds, have shown interesting properties since their discovery in 2017. We have recently employed the azobenzene-ester-linked glycosyl donor–acceptor pairs to study the influence of photoisomerization on intramolecular glycosylation. To continue the investigation on the stereoselectivity aspect of glycosyl ...
