Application study of 1,2-α-l-fucosynthase: introduction of Fucα1-2Gal disaccharide structures on N-glycan, ganglioside, and xyloglucan oligosaccharide.

Abstract excerpt

We have recently generated a highly efficient 1,2-α-l-fucosynthase (BbAfcA N423H mutant) by protein engineering of 1,2-α-l-fucosidase from Bifidobacterium bifidum JCM 1254. This synthase could specifically introduce H-antigens (Fucα1-2Gal) into the non-reducing ends of oligosaccharides and in O-linked glycans in mucin glycoprotein. In the present study, we show an extended application of the engineered...
