Novel Enzyme Catalyzing the Formation of Glycosidic Bonds in Complex Sugar Moieties Characterized

Researchers from Japan determine the precise mechanism of action of a β-1,2-glucan-associated enzyme, which offers fresh insights into complex sugar metabolism. Sugar chains confer functionality to many organic molecules in glycosides. Enzymes like glycosyltransferases catalyze the synthesis of these chains in various biological systems. However, the commercial production of carbohydrate chains involving enzymes that are...
