K. Suzuki et al., AN EFFICIENT SYNTHESIS OF A GAL-BETA-1-3GALNAC-SERINE DERIVATIVE USING BETA-GALACTOSIDASE, Tetrahedron letters, 38(7), 1997, pp. 1211-1214
An efficient route for the synthesis of Gal beta 1-3GalNAc alpha 1-O-S
erine derivative was developed using a novel beta 1-3 galactosidase ob
tained from Bacillus circulans. By a transglycosylation reaction with
pNP-beta-Gal 2 as a donor and GalNAc alpha-O-Z-Ser-OAll 4 as an accept
or, Gal beta 1-3GalNAc alpha-1-O-Z-Ser-OAll 5 was synthesized in 68% y
ield. (C) 1997, Elsevier Science Ltd.
