Abstract Prebiotics have long been used to modulate the gut microbiota and improve host health. Most established prebiotics are nondigestible carbohydrates, especially short‐chain oligosaccharides. Recently, gluco‐oligosaccharides (GlcOS) with 2–10 glucose residues and one or more O‐glycosidic linkage(s) have been found to exert prebiotic potentials ...

Hijacking the Peptidoglycan Recycling Pathway of Escherichia coli to Produce Muropeptides
A straightforward access to Gram‐negative and Gram‐positive muropeptides was developed by a chemo‐enzymatic strategy based on metabolically engineered E.coli cells. Abstract Soluble fragments of peptidoglycan called muropeptides are released from the cell wall of bacteria as part of their metabolism or as a result of biological stresses.

Enzymatic Late‐Stage Modifications: Better Late Than Never
Late‐stage modification is an indispensable approach for compound diversification in synthesis. Since enzymes offer particularly powerful means for mild, catalyst‐controlled functionalisations, in recent years several novel biocatalytic methods have emerged enabling a broad array of orthogonal reactions.

Biocatalysis: Enzymatic Synthesis for Industrial Applications
Biocatalysis has developed into a mature technology for chemical and pharmaceutical synthesis as well as other areas where high selectivity and mild reaction conditions are required. This Review highlights recent achievements with a special focus on industrialized applications including the introduction of key performance indicators (KPIs) to judge the

Enzymatic Building‐Block Synthesis for Solid‐Phase Automated Glycan Assembly
In a chemoenzymatic approach to oligosaccharide synthesis, the scalability potential of enzymatic synthesis was exploited for the preparative synthesis of a relevant N‐acetyllactosamine disaccharide building block. This disaccharide was then applied successfully to the automated synthesis of a target oligosaccharide using the glycan synthesizer ...

Design and applications of bifunctional small molecules: Why two heads are better than one [PDF]
Induction of protein−protein interactions is a daunting challenge, but recent studies show promise for small molecules that specifically bring two or more protein molecules together for enhanced or novel biological effect.

Catalytic Promiscuity of Transaminases : Preparation of Enantioenriched β-Fluoroamines by Formal Tandem Hydrodefluorination/Deamination [PDF]
Transaminases are valuable enzymes for industrial biocatalysis and enable the preparation of optically pure amines. For these transformations they require either an amine donor (amination of ketones) or an amine acceptor (deamination of racemic amines ...
