An α-L-fucosidase from Penicillium multicolor as a candidate enzyme for the synthesis of α (1→3)-linked fucosyl oligosaccharides by transglycosylation

A new α-L-fucosidase was partially purified from the culture broth of Penicillium multicolor, which was available commercially as a freeze dried powder by the name of Lactase-P. This enzyme catalysed the transglycosylation of fucose residue of p-nitrophenyl-α-L-fucopyranoside to give α-L-Fuc-(1→3)-D-G1c or α-L-Fuc-(1→3)-D-GlcNAc regioselectiveiy. This enzyme was more stable in the organic co-solvents than the α-fucosidase from Aspergillus niger, which was also proposed previously by us as an enzyme to produce fucosyl oligosaccharides.
