Glucose-1-phosphate thymidylyltransferase (Cps23FL) from Streptococcus pneumonia serotype 23F is the initial enzyme that catalyses the thymidylyl transfer reaction in prokaryotic deoxythymidine diphosphate-l-rhamnose (dTDP-Rha) biosynthetic pathway. In this study, the broad substrate specificity of Cps23FL towards six glucose-1-phosphates and nine nucleoside triphosphates as substrates was systematically explored, eventually providing access to nineteen sugar nucleotide analogs.

The trehalose synthase (TreT) from Pyrococcus horikoshii represented reversible catalysis in alternative synthesis of trehalose and nucleoside 5′-diphosphate-glucose (NDP-Glc), depending on the substrates involved. TreT from P. horikoshii had differential preferences on NDP-Glc as a donor for trehalose synthesis, in which guanosine 5′-diphosphate (GDP)-Glc was the most favored in terms of reaction specificity, kcat/Km. Uridine 5′-diphosphate (UDP)- and adenosine 5′-diphosphate (ADP)-Glcs were employed with less preferences. This enzyme reversely cleaved trehalose to transfer the glucosyl moiety to various NDPs, efficiently producing NDP-Glcs. Although ADP-Glc was the least favorable donor, the counterpart, ADP, was the most favorable acceptor for the reverse synthesis of NDP-Glc in k cat/Km. GDP and UDP were less preferred, compared to ADP. In a batch reaction of 12 h, the molar yield of NDP-Glc per NDP used was decreased approximately in the order of ADP-Glc > GDP-Glc > cytidine 5′-diphosphate (CDP)-Glc or UDP-Glc. The overall productivity of the enzyme was largely improved in a gram scale for NDP-Glcs using repetitive batch reactions with enzyme recycling. Thus, it is suggested that TreT from P. horikoshii may be useful for the regeneration of NDP-Glc from NDP, especially for ADP-Glc from ADP, with trehalose as a glucose resource.

As Leloir glycosyltransferases are increasingly being used to prepare oligosaccharides, glycoconjugates, and glycosylated natural products, efficient access to stereopure sugar nucleotide donor substrates is required. Herein, the rapid synthesis and purification of eight sugar nucleotides is described by a facile 30 min activation of nucleoside 5′-monophosphates bearing purine and pyrimidine bases with trifluoroacetic anhydride and N-methylimidazole, followed by a 2 h coupling with stereospecifically prepared sugar-1-phosphates. Tributylammonium bicarbonate and tributylammonium acetate were the ion-pair reagents of choice for the C18 reversed-phase purification of 6-deoxysugar nucleotides, and hexose or pentose-derived sugar nucleotides, respectively.

(Graph Presented) Enzymatic approaches to prepare sugar nucleotides are gaining in importance and offer several advantages over chemical synthesis including high yields and stereospecificity. We report the cloning, expression, and purification of two new wild-type thymidylyltransferases and observed catalysis with a wide variety of substrates. Significant product inhibition was not observed with the enzymes studied over a 24 h period, enabling the efficient preparation of 15 sugar nucleotides, clearly demonstrating the synthetic utility of these biocatalysts.

The synthesis of NDP-glucose 3a-d (N = A, C, U, dU) with sucrose synthase B was combined with the enzymatic synthesis of nucleoside diphosphates 2a-d from their corresponding nucleoside monophosphates 1a-d by different kinases A. Further combination with
