Gluco‐oligosaccharides as potential prebiotics: Synthesis, purification, structural characterization, and evaluation of prebiotic effect

open access: yesComprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 22, Issue 4, Page 2611-2651, July 2023., 2023
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 ...

Chemo‐Enzymatic Synthesis of Long‐Chain Oligosaccharides for Studying Xylan‐Modifying Enzymes

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, Volume 29, Issue 26, May 8, 2023., 2023
Xylan biosynthesis: Starting from dixylosides, chemo‐enzymatic syntheses of xylan dodecasaccharides using glycosynthase‐mediated coupling reactions between glycosyl fluoride donors and thioglycoside acceptors were performed. These long‐chain xylan oligosaccharides were incubated with xylan‐modifying enzymes from plants, i.

Hijacking the Peptidoglycan Recycling Pathway of Escherichia coli to Produce Muropeptides

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, Volume 29, Issue 6, January 27, 2023., 2023
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

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie International Edition, Volume 60, Issue 31, Page 16824-16855, July 26, 2021., 2021
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.

Enzymatic Building‐Block Synthesis for Solid‐Phase Automated Glycan Assembly

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, Volume 132, Issue 50, Page 22642-22645, December 7, 2020., 2020
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 ...

Click-Chemistry-Based Free Azide versus Azido Sugar Detection Enables Rapid In Vivo Screening of Glycosynthase Activity

open access: yes, 2021
Engineering of carbohydrate-active enzymes such as glycosynthases to enable chemoenzymatic synthesis of bespoke oligosaccharides has been limited by the lack of suitable ultrahigh-throughput screening methods capable of robustly detecting either starting
