An SN2 mechanism was proposed for highly stereoselective glycosylation of benzoic acid with unprotected α-d-glucose under Mitsunobu conditions in dioxane, while an SN1 mechanism was indicated for nonstereoselective glycosylation in DMF. The SN2-type stereoselective Mitsunobu glycosylation is generally applicable to various unprotected pyranoses as glycosyl donors in combination with a wide range of acidic glycosyl acceptors such as carboxylic acids, phenols, and imides, retaining its high stereoselectivity (33 examples). Glycosylation of a carboxylic acid with unprotected α-d-mannose proceeded also in an SN2 manner to directly afford a usually less accessible 1,2-cis-mannoside. One-or two-step total syntheses of five simple natural glycosides were performed using the glycosylation strategy presented here using unprotected α-d-glucose.

Paragraph 0112, (2015/09/22)
An object of the present invention is to provide a sugar donating reagent comprising a sugar donor compound other than a sugar nucleotide and an enzyme capable of catalyzing a glycosyl transfer reaction using a sugar donor compound other than a sugar nucleotide. The present invention provides the following: a sugar donating reagent containing a compound of formula (A): wherein R 1 is independently selected from hydrogen, or C 1-6 alkyl, C 2-6 alkenyl, and C 2-6 alkynyl in which each of the groups is unsubstituted or substituted with one or more groups selected from OH, F, Cl, Br, I, CN, NO 2 , and SO 2 , n is 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5, m is 0 or 1, and X represents a monosaccharide bound via a 2 bond on its anomeric carbon; a glycosyltransferase capable of catalyzing a glycosyl transfer reaction using the sugar donor; and a glycosyltransferase gene comprising DNA encoding the glycosyltransferase.

A cDNA encoding the ester-forming hydroxybenzoic acid glucosyltransferase UGT84A13 was isolated from a cDNA library of Quercus robur swelling buds and young leaves. The enzyme displayed high sequence identity to resveratrol/hydroxycinnamate and hydroxybenzoate/hydroxycinnamate glucosyltransferases from Vitis species and clustered to the phylogenetic group L of plant glucosyltransferases, mainly involved in the formation of 1-O-β-d-glucose esters. In silico transcriptome analysis confirmed expression of UGT84A13 in Quercus tissues which were previously shown to exhibit UDP-glucose:gallic acid glucosyltransferase activity. UGT84A13 was functionally expressed in Escherichia coli as N-terminal His-tagged protein. In vitro kinetic measurements with the purified recombinant enzyme revealed a clear preference for hydroxybenzoic acids as glucosyl acceptor in comparison to hydroxycinnamic acids. Of the preferred in vitro substrates, protocatechuic, vanillic and gallic acid, only the latter and its corresponding 1-O-?-D-glucose ester were found to be accumulated in young oak leaves. This indicates that in planta UGT84A13 catalyzes the formation of, 1-O-galloyl-?-D-glucose, the first committed step of gallotannin biosynthesis.
