Chemoenzymatic Synthesis of 6‐Sulfo Sialyl Lewisx Containing Glycans to Probe the Receptor Specificity of MERS Coronavirus

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A chemoenzymatic methodology is described that provided a panel of 6‐sulfo sialyl Lewisx‐containing glycans that were probed for receptor specificity of MERS‐CoV. Although the fucoside of 6‐sulfo‐SLex does not directly interact with the spike, it pre‐organizes the molecule into a conformation to allow a salt bridge between the sulfate and the ...
