These www.rsc.org/ unique structures offer avenues for targeting bacteria with specific therapeutics and vaccines. However, the rare sugars are not accessible in acceptable purity and amounts by isolation from natural sources. Thus, procurement of orthogonally protected rare sugar building blocks through efficient chemical synthesis is regarded as a crucial step towards the development of glycoconjugate vaccines. This Highlight focuses on recent advances in the synthesis of the bacterial deoxy amino hexopyranoside building blocks and their applications to construct various biologically important bacterial O‐glycans. 1. Introduction Bacterial glycoproteins and oligosaccharides contain rare deoxy 1- amino sugars which are not present on the human cell surface. 6 6 X 4 These important structural differences help to differentiate 5 O between the pathogen and the host cell and can be exploited for HO 3 2 1 OH target specific drug discovery and carbohydrate based vaccine AcHN development.7 However, these rare sugars are not available from natural sources. Chemical synthesis of orthogonally X= NH2,NHAc,OH,O protected rare sugar building blocks has therefore received considerable attention. The bacterial atypical sugars include, 2-acetamido-4-amino- H2N AcHN HO 2 2,4,6-trideoxy-D-galactose (AAT), 2,4-diacetamido-2,4,6- O O O 3 4 trideoxy-D-galactose (DATDG), bacillosamine (Bac), N- HO HO HO 5 acetyl fucosamine (FucNAc), and D-xylo-6-deoxy-4- AcHN OH AcHN OH AcHN OH ketohexosamine (DKH)6 (Fig 1). These sugars form key components of a variety of bacterial glycoconjugates AAT FucNAc (zwitterionic polysaccharides, glycoproteins and DATDG oligosaccharides). There is growing evidence that the ability of the pathogen to express these unusual sugars is linked with O pathogenesis. A detailed account of the bacterial source, the AcHN O O type of sugars present and their associated disease is HO HO categorically presented in a recent review article by Dube and AcHN OH AcHN OH coworkers.1a In this Highlight we discuss the methods developed for chemical synthesis of the rare sugars.

University of Cape Town Abstract Bacterial cell surface polysaccharides are primarily present as lipopolysaccharides or capsular polysac- charides. They are used by cells for both structure and function and have been shown to be a virulence factor of bacterial pathogens. Cell surface polysaccharides are widely utilised as antigenic components in vaccines and play an important role in the protection against numerous diseases including meningo- coccal disease and shigellosis. This study is composed of two parts: a computational section, which investigates the capsular polysaccharide (CPS) repeating unit (RU) conformations of meningococcal Y and W CPS vaccines and a second experimental component that involves synthetic studies toward the O-specific polysaccharide (O-SP) RU of Shigella sonnei. The CPS RU of MenY [!6)-a-D-Glc(1!4)-a-D-NeuNAc-(2!] and MenW [!6)-a-D-Gal(1!4)-a- D-NeuNAc-(2!] differ only in the orientation of the C-4 hydroxyl: equatorial in MenY and axial in MenW.

McCleary, Naomi Sloane and Anna Draga Megazyme International Ireland, Bray Business Park, Bray, County Wicklow, Ireland The new definition of dietary fibre introduced by Codex Alimentarius in 2008 includes resistant Received: January 23, 2015 starch and the option to include non-digestible oligosaccharides. Implementation of this definition Revised: March 5, 2015 required new methodology. An integrated total dietary fibre method was evaluated and accepted by Accepted: March 5, 2015 AOAC InternationalandAACCInternational(AOACMethods2009.01and2011.25;AACCMethod 32–45.01 and 32–50.01, and recently adopted by Codex Alimentarius as a Type I Method. However, in application of the method to a diverse range of food samples and particularly food ingredients, some limitations have been identified. One of the ongoing criticisms of this method was that the time of incubation with pancreatic a-amylase/amyloglucosidase mixture was 16 h, whereas the time for food to transit through the human small intestine was likely to be approximately 4 h. In the current work, we use an incubation time of 4 h, and have evaluated incubation conditions that yield resistant starch and dietary values in line with ileostomy results within this time frame. Problems associated with production, hydrolysis and chromatography of various oligosaccharides have been addressed resulting in a more rapid procedure that is directly applicable to all foods and food ingredients currently available.

The reducing terminal of Galfil--+4(GlcNAclJ was oxidized and connected to p-vinylbenzylamine via amide linkage, and the resulting oligosaccharide-substituted styrene monomer was polymerized with the radical initiator, 2,2' -azobis(2-amidinopropane) dihydrochloride at 60"C. Glycopolystyrene was found to bind strongly with wheat germ agglutinin (WGA) and tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) agglutinin (LEA) by inhibition of hemagglutination and double diffusion.

Up until now, various anaerobic bacteria are known to express ZPSs, for example, PS A1, PS A2 and PS B (Bacteroides fragilis), Sp1 (Streptococcus pneumoniae), CP5 and CP8 (Staphylococcus aureus) and O-chain antigen (Morganella morgani). Among all the afore mentioned ZPSs, Sp1 and PS A1 polysaccharides were the prime focus of research for the past few decades and their biological properties are very well-understood.

While the immunodominant character of the anthrose residue has been previously elucidated, the role of the stereochemical configuration of the downstream rhamnose is unknown. Because the linkage of this residue to the GlcNAc bridging the glycan and the protein is lost during isolation of the tetrasaccharide, its α- and β-glycoforms have been synthesized. Herein, we prepared neoglycoconjugates from a series of fragments of the tetrasaccharide, including the complete α- and β-tetrasaccharide glycoforms, a 2-demethoxylated version of the α-tetrasaccharide, and the α- and β-trirhamnosides and CRM197.

  • Oligosaccharides Disaccharides
    1 Oligosaccharides Oligosaccharides are carbohydrates formed of 2-10 monosaccharide units covalently bonded to each other by glycosidic bonds. According to the number of sugar units, they are classified into disaccharides, trisaccharides and so on. Disaccharides Disaccharides are oligosaccharides formed of two monosaccharide units covalently bonded by glycosidic bond. Classification Disaccharides are classified according to the type of its monosaccharide unites into: 1- Homodisaccharides These are disaccharides in which the two monosaccharide units are the same e.g.: • Maltose which formed of two α-glucose units linked together by α- (1,4) glycosidic bond It is the major degradation product of starch It has a free aldehyde group so; it is a reducing sugar • Cellobiose which is formed of two units of β glucose linked together by β-(1,4) glycosidic bond. It has a free aldehyde group so; it is a reducing sugar 2- Heterodisaccharide These are disaccharides in which the two monosaccharide units are different e.g.: 2 • Sucrose which is formed of one α glucose molecule and one β fructose molecule linked by α-(1,2)β-glycosidic bond It is prevalent in cane sugar and beets. Sucrose is a non-reducing sugar as it contains no free aldehyde or ketone group. • Lactose is found exclusively in the milk It is formed of one β- galactose and one β- glucose linked together by β-(1,4) glycosidic bond. It has a free aldehyde group so; it is a reducing sugar. Trisaccharides Trisaccharides are oligosaccharides formed of three monosaccharide units covalently bonded to each other by glycosidic bonds.
