Abstract
A library of thermophilic glycosidases was screened for lactosamine pr eparation from a transgalactosylation reaction between lactose and glu cosamine hydrochloride. Two enzymes showed excellent regioselectivity toward glucosamine hydrochloride. The product could be synthesized on a multigram scale and was easily separated and purified by subsequentl y eluting through cation and anion exchange resin columns. (C) 1998 El sevier Science Ltd.
