β-D-Galactofuranose (Galf) is a component of polysaccharides and glycoconjugates. There are few reports about the involvement of galactofuranosyltransferases and galactofuranosidases (Galf-ases) in the synthesis and degradation of galactofuranose-containing glycans. The cell walls of filamentous fungi in the genus Aspergillus include galactofuranose-containing polysaccharides and glycoconjugates, such as O-glycans, N-glycans, and fungal-type galactomannan, which are important for cell wall integrity. In this study, we investigated the synthesis of p-nitrophenyl β-D-galactofuranoside and its disaccharides by chemo-enzymatic methods including use of galactosidase. The key step was selective removal of the concomitant pyranoside by enzymatic hydrolysis to purify p-nitrophenyl β-D-galactofuranoside, a promising substrate for β-D-galactofuranosidase from Streptomyces species.

LecA is a galactose-binding tetrameric lectin from Pseudomonas aeruginosa involved in infection and biofilm formation. The emergent antibiotic resistance of P. aeruginosa has made LecA a promising pharmaceutical target to treat such infections. To develop LecA inhibitors, we exploit the unique helical structure of polyproline peptides to create a scaffold that controls the galactoside positions to fit their binding sites on LecA. With a modular scaffold design, both the galactoside ligands and the inter-ligand distance can be altered conveniently. We prepared scaffolds with spacings of 9, 18, 27, and 36 ? for ligand conjugation and found that glycopeptides with galactosides ligands three helical turns (27 ?) apart best fit LecA. In addition, we tested different galactose derivatives on the selected scaffold (27 ?) to improve the binding avidity to LecA. The results validate a new multivalent scaffold design and provide useful information for LecA inhibitor development.
