The disaccharide α-L-Fucp-(1→2)-β-D-Galp-(1→O)-Octyl (1) is an acceptor for the human blood group A and B glycosyltransferases. Seven analogues of 1, containing deoxy, methoxy and arabino modifications of the Fuc residue, were chemically synthesized and kinetically evaluated in radioactive enzymatic assays. Both the enzymes tolerate modification of the 3'-OH on the fucose residue. The 2'-OH was found to be key to the recognition of the acceptors by these enzymes. The arabino derivative was recognized as an acceptor by the A transferase (K(m) of 200 μM), but not the B transferase and is the first synthetic acceptor capable of distinguishing between the two enzyme activities.

A novel anchoring group p-(acyloxymethyl)benzylidene acetal (p-AMBA) enables the bidirectional functionalization of glycosylated amino acid derivatives and thus the rapid parallel synthesis of fucopeptides as sialyl Lewis X mimetics on a solid phase [Eq.
