O-Glycosylated N-acetyl-β-d-glucosamine-selective N-acetyl-β-d-glucosaminidase (O-GlcNAcase), belonging to glycoside hydrolase family 84 (GH84), is known as a retaining glycosidase with the possibility of enzymatic transglycosylation. However, no enzymatic transglycosylation catalyzed by GH84 O-GlcNAcase has been reported. Here, enzymatic transglycosylation catalyzed by GH84 O-GlcNAcase was first reported. The enzymatic transglycosylation catalyzed by the GH84 O-GlcNAcase from Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron (BtGH84 O-GlcNAcase) was attained using 1,2-oxazoline derivative of N-acetyl-d-glucosamine (GlcNAc oxazoline) as a glycosyl donor substrate. The β-linked N-acetyl-d-glucosamine (GlcNAc) derivative was enzymatically synthesized using N-(2-hydroxyethyl)acrylamide as an acceptor substrate. Interestingly, the β1,6-linked disaccharide derivative of GlcNAc was also obtained in the case of using the GlcNAc derivative with a triazole-linked acrylamide group as an acceptor substrate. Additionally, a one-pot chemo-enzymatic transglycosylation starting from unprotected GlcNAc through GlcNAc oxazoline successfully showed through the combination with the direct synthesis of GlcNAc oxazoline in water and the enzymatic transglycosylation.

Stereoselective synthesis of α-O-oligosaccharides remains a key challenge in glycobiology. While glycoside hydrolase-mediated transglycosylation is promising, current methods yield excessive byproducts and show low specificity. Here, we establish a glycoside hydrolase-based system for precise oligosaccharide synthesis using cyclodextrin as donor.

Human milk oligosaccharides, like 2'-fucosyllactose, have beneficial effects on newborn health, and they can be obtained by enzymatic synthesis with α-l-fucosidases. In this work, the impact of temperature on the α-l-fucosidase from (TmαFuc) structure was evaluated using molecular dynamics simulation (MD). The TmαFuc was found stable in a temperature range of 333-368 K since no differences in the RMSD, RMSF, H-bonds, solvent accessible surface area, radius of gyration, salt bridges and native contacts () values were observed.

A series of new 3'-deoxyribosides of substituted benzimidazoles was obtained by the chemo-enzymatic method using genetically engineered purine nucleoside phosphorylase (PNP). In the case of asymmetrically substituted benzimidazole derivatives, a mixture of N1- and N3-regioisomers was formed (confirmed by NMR). The antiviral activity of the obtained compounds against herpes simplex virus 1 of reference strain L2 and a strain deeply resistant to acyclovir in Vero E6 cell culture was studied.

Rutin has attracted widespread attention due to its multiple pharmacological activities, but inherent defects such as poor water solubility and low bioavailability have greatly limited its clinical applications. Therefore, this study employed cyclodextrin glucanotransferase (CGTase) to catalyze the glycosylation modification of rutin, preparing rutin derivatives with improved water solubility. After optimizing the conditions, we isolated and purified 98.

The nuclear-localized β-glucosidase CEL3C in Trichoderma reesei plays a pivotal role in cellulase regulation, though its mechanism remains poorly understood. To address this, we disrupted CEL3C in the hypercellulolytic strain T. reesei Rut C30 via CRISPR-Cas9 and evaluated cellulase production under sophorose-rich MGD induction.
