- Investigations to mechanism and applications of the glycosylation protocol employing 8-methyltosylaminoethynyl-1-naphthyl (MTEAN) glycoside donors
-
Based on the capability of silyl ethers for efficient glycosylation, the new MTEAN glycosylation protocol utilizing 8-methyltosylaminoethynyl-1-naphthyl (MTEAN) glycosides as donors were extended to one-pot synthesis of nucleosides, late-stage modification of bioactive molecules, and stereoselective construction of 1,2-cis-glucosidic linkages using silyl ethers of the acceptors. Moreover, the reaction mechanism was systematically investigated by control reactions and side product characterizations, leading to the determination of a TfOH-catalyzed ynamide functionality-initiated process, which was further corroborated by identifications of the departure form of leaving group and the real catalyst.

- Two trifunctional leloir glycosyltransferases as biocatalysts for natural products glycodiversification
-
Two promiscuous Bacillus licheniformis glycosyltransferases, YdhE and YojK, exhibited prominent stereospecific but nonregiospecific glycosylation activity of 20 different classes of 59 structurally different natural and non-natural products. Both enzymes transferred various sugars at three nucleophilic groups (OH, NH2, SH) of diverse compounds to produce O-, N-, and S-glycosides. The enzymes also displayed a catalytic reversibility potential for a one-pot transglycosylation, thus bestowing a cost-effective application in biosynthesis of glycodiversified natural products in drug discovery.
