1 16800641 These results show that the biosynthesis of Vi antigen is initiated by the TviB-catalyzed oxidation of UDP-GlcNAc to UDP-GalNAc, followed by the TviC-catalyzed epimerization at C-4 to form UDP-GalNAcA, which serves as the building block for the formation of Vi polymer.
2 24044869 We report here the development of chemoenzymatic methods for the large-scale synthesis of cancer-associated antigens globopentaose (Gb5), fucosyl-Gb5 (Globo H), and sialyl-Gb5 (SSEA4) by using overexpressed glycosyltransferases coupled with effective regeneration of sugar nucleotides, including UDP-Gal, UDP-GalNAc, GDP-Fuc, and CMP-Neu5Ac.
