✦ Synopsis
4-O-beta-D-Galactopyranosyl-3-O-methyl-D-glucose (1, 3-O-methyl-lactose) has been prepared from benzyl 2,6-di-O-benzyl-4-O-(2,6-di-O-benzyl-3, 4-O-isopropylidene-beta-D-galactopyranosyl)-beta-D-glucopyranoside (5) and from benzyl 2,6-di-O-benzyl-4-O-(2,3,4,6-tetra-O-benzyl-beta-D-galactopyranosyl)-bet a-D-glucopyranoside (15). Partial benzylation of benzyl 3',4'-O-isopropylidene-beta-lactoside (4) gave 5 and partial benzylation of either benzyl beta-lactoside (13) or benzyl hepta-O-acetyl-beta-lactoside (24) gave 15. All other products from the partial benzylation of 4, 13, and 24 were also isolated and characterised. The hydrolysis of 1 in vitro by intestinal lactase was linear during 20 h; the Vmax was 5% of that with lactose and the Km was 120mM (cf. 30mM for lactose). Oral administration of 1 to suckling rats led to urinary excretion of 3-O-methyl-D-glucose.

Recent years have seen a remarkable surge of interest in the study of U-Lfucosyltransferases. Of these L-fucosyltransferases, the enzyme (143)~a+fucosyltransferase has attracted a great deal of clinical interest as a potential tumor marker. This enzyme catalyzes the transfer of an L-fucosyl group f
By enzymatic fl-o-galactosylation of D-xylose a mixture of 4-, 3-, and 2-O-fl-D-galactopyranosyl-D-xyloses (1, 4, and 7, respectively) was obtained in 50% isolated yield. Disaccharides 1, 4, and 7 are substrates of intestinal lactase isolated from lamb small intestine with K m values of 250.0, 4.5,
