Enzymatic approaches to rare sugar production

Biotechnology Advances, 2017
Rare sugars have recently attracted much attention because of their potential applications in the food, nutraceutical, and pharmaceutical industries. A systematic strategy for enzymatic production of rare sugars, named Izumoring, was developed >10years ago.

Synthesis of rare sugar isomers through site-selective epimerization

Nature, 2020
Glycans have diverse physiological functions, ranging from energy storage and structural integrity to cell signalling and the regulation of intracellular processes1. Although biomass-derived carbohydrates (such as D-glucose, D-xylose and D-galactose) are extracted on commercial scales, and serve as renewable chemical feedstocks and building blocks2,3 ...

Phosphate sugar isomerases and their potential for rare sugar bioconversion

Journal of Microbiology, 2020
Phosphate sugar isomerases, catalyzing the isomerization between ketopentose/ketohexose phosphate and aldopentose/aldohexose phosphate, play an important role in microbial sugar metabolism. They are present in a wide range of microorganisms. They have attracted increasing research interest because of their broad substrate specificity and great ...

Rare sugars and sugar-based synthons by chemo-enzymatic synthesis

Enzyme and Microbial Technology, 2000
The unique catalytic potential of the fungal enzyme pyranose oxidase was demonstrated by preparative conversions of a variety of carbohydrates, and by extensive chemical characterization of the reaction products with NMR spectroscopy. The studies revealed that POx not only oxidizes most substrates very efficiently but also that POx possesses a glycosyl-
