A Glycosynthase Catalyst for the Synthesis of Flavonoid Glycosides
Glycosylation of lipophilic small molecules is one of the predominant strategies by which the bioactivity of these compounds is modulated in living organisms. Indeed, even simple plants, such as Arabidopsis thaliana, dedicate over 120 open reading frames encoding many activated sugar-dependent glycosyltransferases to this task alone.

Glycoside hydrolases for extraction and modification of polyphenolic antioxidants [PDF]
Antioxidants are important molecules that are widely used by humans, both as dietary supplements and as additives to different types of products. In this chapter, we review how flavonoids, a class of polyphenolic antioxidants that are often found in ...

A front-face 'SNi synthase' engineered from a retaining 'double-SN2' hydrolase. [PDF]
SNi-like mechanisms, which involve front-face leaving group departure and nucleophile approach, have been observed experimentally and computationally in chemical and enzymatic substitution at α-glycosyl electrophiles.
