Journal ArticleDOI

Efficient Chemoenzymatic Synthesis of an N-glycan Isomer Library.

TL;DR: An efficient chemoenzymatic synthesis strategy and a HILIC-based purification approach enabled rapid access to an N-glycan isomer library.
Journal ArticleDOI

Efficient one-pot multienzyme synthesis of UDP-sugars using a promiscuous UDP-sugar pyrophosphorylase from Bifidobacterium longum (BLUSP)

TL;DR: A promiscuous UDP-sugar pyrophosphorylase was cloned from Bifidobacterium longum strain ATCC55813 and used efficiently with a Pasteurella multocida inorganic Pyrophosphatase with or without a monosaccharide 1-kinase for one-pot multienzyme synthesis of UDP-galactose, UDP-glucose, and their derivatives.
Journal ArticleDOI

Host adaptation of a bacterial toxin from the human pathogen salmonella typhi.

TL;DR: The atomic structure of typhoid toxin bound to Neu5Ac reveals the structural bases for its binding specificity and provides insight into the molecular bases for Salmonella Typhi's host specificity and may help the development of therapies for typhoid fever.
Journal ArticleDOI

Crystal Structures of Pasteurella multocida Sialyltransferase Complexes with Acceptor and Donor Analogues Reveal Substrate Binding Sites and Catalytic Mechanism.

TL;DR: Structural and kinetic data support a direct displacement mechanism involving an oxocarbenium ion-like transition state assisted with Asp141 serving as a general base to activate the acceptor hydroxyl group.
Journal ArticleDOI

One-pot multienzyme (OPME) systems for chemoenzymatic synthesis of carbohydrates

TL;DR: This Perspective summarizes the work of the authors and collaborators on the development of glycosyltransferase-based OPME systems for carbohydrate synthesis and defines the structures of the products.
