Automated Docking of α-(1,4)- and α-(1,6)-Linked Glucosyl Trisaccharides in the Glucoamylase Active Site [PDF]
Low-energy conformers of five α-(1,4)- and α-(1,6)-linked glucosyl trisaccharides were flexibly docked into the glucoamylase active site using AutoDock 2.2.

Effects of monovalent cations (Na+ and K+) on galacto-oligosaccharides production during lactose hydrolysis by kluyveromyces lactis β-galactosidase [PDF]
The influence of cations, Na+ and K+ on the oligosaccharides produced in the process of transglycosylation during the hydrolysis of lactose using β-galactosidase from Kluyveromyces (K.) lactis has been investigated. The enzyme exhibited higher hydrolytic

O-linked α-N-acetylgalactosamine (α-GalNAc) in the Gc protein is essential for macrophage activation; thus, the GalNAc-attached form of Gc protein is called Gc macrophage activating factor (GcMAF). O-linked glycans in Gc proteins from human plasma mainly

Exploring the immunology of parasitism--from surface antigens to the hygiene hypothesis [PDF]
Helminth immunology is a field which has changed beyond recognition in the past 30 years, transformed not only by new technologies from cDNA cloning to flow cytometry, but also conceptually as our definition of host immune pathways has matured.

A modular strategy was developed to synthesize tri‐, hexa‐, and nona‐saccharides representing repeating units of the conserved O‐polysaccharide backbone of Salmonella. Conjugates of these glycans to bacteriophage Qβ induced strong IgG responses in mice and rabbits. Antibodies elicited recognized native O‐polysaccharides and conferred protection against

Polysaccharide Recognition by Surfactant Protein D: Novel Interactions of a C-Type Lectin with Nonterminal Glucosyl Residues [PDF]
Surfactant protein D (SP-D), a C-type lectin, is an important pulmonary host defense molecule. Carbohydrate binding is critical to its host defense properties, but the precise polysaccharide structures recognized by the protein are unknown.

The synthesis of oligosaccharides is still a challenging task as there is no universal glycosyl donor for the synthesis of all oligosaccharides. The gold catalysis for glycosidation reactions, in which alkynylated glycosides are used, has emerged as one ...

A highly efficient, regioselective method for the direct 2,3-O-isopropylidenation of α-D-mannopyranosides is reported. Treatment of various α-D-mannopyranosides with 0.12 equiv of the TsOH·H2O and 2-methoxypropene at 70 °C gave 2,3-O-isopropylidene-α-D ...
