微生物糖苷酶的新型突变酶——硫代糖苷酶的产生及应用

Novel Mutants of Microbial Glycosidases——Generation and Application of Thioglycoligases

摘要:

微生物糖苷酶的酸碱功能氨基酸突变酶能催化硫代糖苷的合成，这类酶被称为硫代糖苷酶。目前发展的硫代糖苷酶有β-硫代葡糖苷酶、β-硫代甘露糖苷酶、β-硫代半乳糖苷酶、α-硫代木糖苷酶和α-硫代葡糖苷酶，来源于细菌和古细菌，能合成多种硫代糖苷。最近，硫代糖苷酶被应用于糖蛋白的糖基化修饰，首次人工合成硫代糖蛋白。微生物糖苷酶合成功能的新延伸，对糖生物学、生物技术和制药业的发展将有着重要意义。

Abstract:

Acid/base mutants of glycosidases, namely thioglycoligases, are able to catalyze thioglycosides synthesis. Now, many thioglycoligases, including β-thioglucoligase, β-thiomannoligase, β-thiogalactoligase, α-thioxyloligase and α-thioglucoligase, have been developed from bacteria and archaebacteria, and applied in synthesizing various thioglycoligases. Recently, thioglycoligases have been used to glycosylate the glycoprotein and firstly generate the thioglycoprotein. The novel extended synthetic function of glycosidases would promote the development of glycobiology, biotechnology and pharmacy.
