Efficient Preparation of Homogenous Antibody Conjugates via Glycosite-Specific Transglycosylation Enabled by Readily Available Glycosyl Donors. [PDF]
A streamlined platform for glycosite‐specific antibody conjugation is enabled by LacNAc‐derived cyclic acetal donors, which can be prepared in only two steps and used directly in single‐enzyme Endo S2‐mediated transglycosylation. The platform supports the broad construction of homogeneous gsADCs and gsDACs, with donor 7 producing glycoengineered ...

Development of Synthetic Routes to 2'-O,4'-C-Spirocyclopentylene-Bridged Nucleic Acids: Thymidine, Guanosine, and Adenosine. [PDF]
A novel synthetic route to 2′‐O,4′‐C‐spirocyclopentylene‐bridged nucleic acid (scpBNA2) monomers bearing thymine, guanine, and adenine nucleobases. The strategy integrates 2′,4′‐lactonization, transglycosylation, and intramolecular iodocyclization, thereby bypassing the 2′‐OH inversion step and providing scpBNA2 nucleoside building blocks for antisense
