Small molecule irreversible inhibitors are valuable tools for determining catalytically important active-site residues and revealing key details of the specificity, structure, and function of glycoside hydrolases (GHs). β-glucans that contain backbone β(1,3) linkages are widespread in nature, e.g., mixed-linkage β(1,3)/β(1,4)-glucans in the cell walls of higher plants and β(1,3)glucans in yeasts and algae. Commensurate with this ubiquity, a large diversity of mixed-linkage endoglucanases (MLGases, EC 3.2.1.73) and endo-β(1,3)-glucanases (laminarinases, EC 3.2.1.39 and EC 3.2.1.6) have evolved to specifically hydrolyze these polysaccharides, respectively, in environmental niches including the human gut. To facilitate biochemical and structural analysis of these GHs, with a focus on MLGases, we present here the facile chemo-enzymatic synthesis of a library of active-site-directed enzyme inhibitors based on mixed-linkage oligosaccharide scaffolds and N-bromoacetylglycosylamine or 2-fluoro-2-deoxyglycoside warheads. The effectiveness and irreversibility of these inhibitors were tested with exemplar MLGases and an endo-β(1,3)-glucanase. Notably, determination of inhibitor-bound crystal structures of a human-gut microbial MLGase from Glycoside Hydrolase Family 16 revealed.

Paragraph 0029-0040, (2020/11/01)
The invention relates to a method for preparing lactic acid through catalytically converting carbohydrate, and in particular, relates to a process for preparing lactic acid by catalytically convertingcarbohydrate under hydrothermal conditions. The method disclosed by the invention is characterized by specifically comprising the following steps: 1) adding carbohydrate and a catalyst into a closedhigh-pressure reaction kettle, and then adding pure water for mixing; 2) introducing nitrogen into the high-pressure reaction kettle to discharge air, introducing nitrogen of 2 MPa, stirring and heating to 160-300 DEG C, and carrying out reaction for 10-120 minutes; 3) putting the high-pressure reaction kettle in an ice-water bath, and cooling to room temperature; and 4) filtering the solution through a microporous filtering membrane to obtain the target product. The method can realize high conversion rate of carbohydrate and high yield of lactic acid, and has the advantages of less catalyst consumption, good circularity, small corrosion to reaction equipment and the like.

Cellobiose 2-epimerase from Rhodothermus marinus (RmCE) reversibly converts a glucose residue to a mannose residue at the reducing end of β-1,4-linked oligosaccharides. In this study, the monosaccharide specificity of RmCE has been mapped and the synthesis of D-talose from D-galactose was discovered, a reaction not yet known to occur in nature. Moreover, the conversion is industrially relevant, as talose and its derivatives have been reported to possess important antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties. As the enzyme also catalyzes the keto-aldo isomerization of galactose to tagatose as a minor side reaction, the purity of talose was found to decrease over time. After process optimization, 23 g/L of talose could be obtained with a product purity of 86% and a yield of 8.5% (starting from 4 g (24 mmol) of galactose). However, higher purities and concentrations can be reached by decreasing and increasing the reaction time, respectively. In addition, two engineering attempts have also been performed. First, a mutant library of RmCE was created to try and increase the activity on monosaccharide substrates. Next, two residues from RmCE were introduced in the cellobiose 2-epimerase from Caldicellulosiruptor saccharolyticus (CsCE) (S99M/Q371F), increasing the kcat twofold.

The development of heterogeneous catalysts for the epimerization of sugars has received much less attention than that for the isomerization of sugars. To date, molybdates are the most effective catalysts for the epimerization of sugars, although they lack stability toward hydrolysis of their active sites in water. To solve the issue of the formation of a highly water-soluble heteropolyblue (PMored) for phosphomolybdates (PMos) in aqueous reaction systems, herein, a 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium phosphomolybdate ([BMIM]3PMo12O40) was synthesized through an ion-exchange method. This catalyst was effective and selective for the C2-epimerization of sugars under mild reaction conditions (red was detected by means of UV/Vis spectroscopy. Moreover, the catalyst can be simply separated by filtration and reused for at least eight cycles without a drop in catalytic activity. XRD, FTIR, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy measurements indicate that the catalyst is stable under the reaction conditions. In a comparison of the catalytic activity and surface wettability with those of other PMo salts, that is, 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium phosphomolybdate ([EMIM]3PMo12O40), 1-hexyl-3-methylimidazolium ([HexMIM]3PMo12O40), [choline]3PMo12O40, and cetyltrimethylammonium phosphomolybdate ([CTA]3PMo12O40), it is found that [BMIM]3PMo12O40 has more appropriate hydrophobic–hydrophilic balance, which should be responsible for better catalytic activity and stability.

A highly selective self-condensation of glycolaldehyde to different C4 molecules has been achieved using Lewis acidic stannosilicate catalysts in water at moderate temperatures (40–100 °C). The medium-sized zeolite pores (10-membered ring framework) in Sn-MFI facilitate the formation of tetrose sugars while hindering consecutive aldol reactions leading to hexose sugars. High yields of tetrose sugars (74 %) with minor amounts of vinyl glycolic acid (VGA), an α-hydroxyacid, are obtained using Sn-MFI with selectivities towards C4 products reaching 97 %. Tin catalysts having large pores or no pore structure (Sn-Beta, Sn-MCM-41, Sn-SBA-15, tin chloride) led to lower selectivities for C4 sugars due to formation of hexose sugars. In the case of Sn-Beta, VGA is the main product (30 %), illustrating differences in selectivity of the Sn sites in the different frameworks. Under optimized conditions, GA can undergo further conversion, leading to yields of up to 44 % of VGA using Sn-MFI in water. The use of Sn-MFI offers multiple possibilities for valorization of biomass-derived GA in water under mild conditions selectively producing C4 molecules.

Isomerization of disaccharides (maltose, isomaltose, cellobiose, lactose, melibiose, palatinose, sucrose, and trehalose) was investigated in subcritical aqueous ethanol. A marked increase in the isomerization of aldo-disaccharides to keto-disaccharides was noted and their hydrolytic reactions were suppressed with increasing ethanol concentration. Under any study condition, the maximum yield of keto-disaccharides produced from aldo-disaccharides linked by β-glycosidic bond was higher than that produced from aldo-disaccharides linked by α-glycosidic bond. Palatinose, a keto-disaccharide, mainly underwent decomposition rather than isomerization in subcritical water and subcritical aqueous ethanol. No isomerization was noted for the non-reducing disaccharides trehalose and sucrose. The rate constant of maltose to maltulose isomerization almost doubled by changing solvent from sub-critical water to 80 wt% aqueous ethanol at 220°C. Increased maltose monohydrate concentration in feed decreased the conversion of maltose and the maximum yield of maltulose, but increased the productivity of maltulose. The maximum productivity of maltulose was ca. 41 g/(h kg-solution).

Ball milling of cellulose in the presence of a catalytic amount of H2SO4 was found to be a promising pre-treatment process to produce butyl glycosides in high yields. Conversely to the case of water, n-butanol has only a slight effect on the recrystallization of ball-milled cellulose. As a result, thorough depolymerization of cellulose prior the glycosylation step is no longer required, which is a pivotal aspect with respect to energy consumption. This process was successfully transposed to wheat straw from which butyl glycosides and xylosides were produced in good yields. Butyl glycosides and xylosides are important chemicals as they can be used as hydrotropes but also as intermediates in the production of valuable amphiphilic alkyl glycosides.

Abstract In this work, the catalytic effect of the Bronsted acid hydrochloric acid, the Bronsted base sodium hydroxide and the Lewis acid AlCl3 on the conversion of biomass derived carbohydrates is investigated. On the example of the glycolaldehyde conversion, it is shown that the Lewis acid catalyses the ketol-endiol-tautomerism, the dehydration, the retro-aldol-reaction and the benzilic-acid-rearrangement. The main products are C4- and C6-carbohydrates as well as their secondary products 2-hydroxybut-3-enoic acid 1 and several furans. Under the same reaction conditions hydrochloric acid catalyzes mainly the dehydration and sodium hydroxide the tautomerism and subsequent aldolization.
