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. -
A Versatile Glycosylation Strategy Via Au(III) Catalyzed Activation of Thioglycoside Donors† Cite This: Chem

Sci.,2016,7,4259 Amol M. Vibhute, Arun Dhaka, Vignesh Athiyarath and Kana M. Sureshan* Among various methods of chemical glycosylations, glycosylation by activation of thioglycoside donors using a thiophilic promoter is an important strategy. Many promoters have been developed for the activation of thioglycosides. However, incompatibility with substrates having alkenes and the requirement of a stoichiometric amount of promoters, co-promoters and extreme temperatures are some of the limitations. We have developed an efficient methodology for glycosylation via the activation of thioglycoside donors using a catalytic amount of AuCl3 and without any co-promoter. The reaction is Received 10th February 2016 very fast, high-yielding and very facile at room temperature.

A Thesis entitled Thio-arylglycosides with Various Aglycon Para-Substituents, a Useful Tool for Mechanistic Investigation of Chemical Glycosylations by Xiaoning Li Submitted as partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Master of Science Degree in Chemistry ___________________________ Advisor: Dr. Xuefei Huang ___________________________ College of Graduate Studies The University of Toledo August 2007 An Abstract of Thio-arylglycosides with Various Aglycon Para-Substituents, a Useful Tool for Mechanistic Investigation of Chemical Glycosylations by Xiaoning Li Submitted as partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Master of Science Degree in Chemistry The University of Toledo August 2007 Oligosaccharides are usually found as protein or lipid conjugates in cellular systems. They play crucial roles in many biological processes. Among many approaches, organic synthesis is a very important way to obtain the desired oligosaccharides for biological studies. To date, no general synthetic procedures are available for oligosaccharide synthesis. Laborious synthetic transformations are generally required in order to obtain the desired regio- and/or stereo-selective control in oligosaccharide synthesis, due to their diverse and complex structures and many chemical equivalent ii hydroxyl functional groups. To achieve a rapid synthetic routine with high yields, a key step - glycosylation in oligosaccharide synthesis needs to be well understood. Thus an insight into the mechanism of glycosylation will provide valuable information potentially leading to the development of generalized glycosylation method. In this work, kinetic properties of glycosylation were evaluated by model reactions between three different series of glycosyl donors and three different glycosyl acceptors. The glycosylation mechanism was analyzed in the context of a linear-free energy relationship. -
Anti-Cancer Effect of Polysaccharides Isolated from Higher Basidiomycetes Mushrooms
African Journal of Biotechnology Vol. 2 (12), pp. 672-678, December 2003 Available online at http://www.academicjournals.org/AJB ISSN 1684–5315 © 2003 Academic Journals Takashi Mizuno (1931-2000) Professor Emeritus of Shizuoka University This article is written in memory of Professor Takashi Mizuno who died in May 2000. He had focused a lifetime of research upon development of various antitumor substances from medicinal mushrooms, and is considered th one of the 20 century greatest scientist in his field. Mizuno proved that many polysaccharides with antitumor and immunopotentiating qualities were synthesised in cultured mycelia no less and in fact often better than in fruiting bodies. This result virtually revolutionised mushroom producing and processing business. “Medicine and food both originate from the same root” is a Japanese proverb Mizuno often quoted. Minireview Anti-cancer effect of polysaccharides isolated from higher basidiomycetes mushrooms A.S. Dabaλ and O.U.Ezeronye* Division of Medical Biochemistry, Molecular Biology Laboratory, Faculty of Health Sciences, University of Cape Town, Observatory Cape Town, South Africa. Accepted 24 November 2003 Anti-tumor activity of mushroom fruit bodies and mycelial extracts evaluated using different cancer cell lines. These polysaccharide extracts showed potent antitumor activity against sarcoma 180, mammary adenocarcinoma 755, leukemia L-1210 and a host of other tumors. The antitumor activity was mainly due to indirect host mediated immunotherapeutic effect. These studies are still in progress in many laboratories and the role of the polysaccharides as immunopotentiators is especially under intense debate. The purpose of the present review is to summarize the available information in this area and to indicate the present status of the research. -

Characterization of Glycosyl Dioxolenium Ions and Their Role in Glycosylation Reactions

Boltje 2 1234567890():,; Controlling the chemical glycosylation reaction remains the major challenge in the synthesis of oligosaccharides. Though 1,2-trans glycosidic linkages can be installed using neighboring group participation, the construction of 1,2-cis linkages is difficult and has no general solution. Long-range participation (LRP) by distal acyl groups may steer the stereoselectivity, but contradictory results have been reported on the role and strength of this stereoelectronic effect. It has been exceedingly difficult to study the bridging dioxolenium ion intermediates because of their high reactivity and fleeting nature. Here we report an integrated approach, using infrared ion spectroscopy, DFT computations, and a systematic series of glycosylation reactions to probe these ions in detail. Our study reveals how distal acyl groups can play a decisive role in shaping the stereochemical outcome of a glycosylation reaction, and opens new avenues to exploit these species in the assembly of oligosaccharides and glycoconju- gates to fuel biological research. 1 Leiden University, Leiden Institute of Chemistry, Einsteinweg 55, 2333 CC Leiden, The Netherlands. 2 Radboud University Institute for Molecules and Materials, Heyendaalseweg 135, 6525 AJ Nijmegen, The Netherlands.
