Glycosidases and glycosyl transferases in glycoside and oligosaccharide synthesis
David H. G. Crout,G. Vic +1 more
TL;DR: The challenge of producing the complex glycosides and oligosaccharides needed for research in glycobiology has led to the development of enzymatic methods that are now firmly established as part of the synthetic repertoire of the carbohydrate chemist.

Biocatalyst behaviour in low-water systems
TL;DR: Some of the key factors, such as control of water activity, and the effects of solvent on K m and protein-ionization state, that must be addressed in order to obtain predictable results are discussed.
