Efficient transfer of sialo-oligosaccharide onto proteins by combined use of a glycosynthase-like mutant of Mucor hiemalis endoglycosidase and synthetic sialo-complex-type sugar oxazoline.

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: An efficient method for synthesizing homogenous glycoproteins is essential for elucidating the structural and functional roles of glycans of glycoproteins. We have focused on the transglycosylation activity of endo-ß-N-acetylglucosaminidase from Mucor hiemalis (Endo-M) as a tool for glycoconjugate syntheses, since it can transfer en bloc the oligosaccharide of not only high-mannose type but also...
