✦ Synopsis

In the past few years, significant progress has been made in our understanding of the biosynthesis of deoxyhexoses. Mechanistic studies have revealed how enzymes can cleave CbondO bonds of a hexose substrate to make unusual sugars. The increasing amount of knowledge about the biosynthesis of deoxysugars may allow the assembly of a repertoire of novel sugar structures through recruitment and collaborative action of genes from a variety of biosynthetic pathways to create diverse secondary metabolites in our search for novel antibiotic/antitumour agents.

The incorporation of a stereochemical probe into aryl substituted oxiranylcarbinyl radicals has demonstrated that the C-C bond cleavage in these systems is reversible, and that it can occur even when no products of C-C cleavage are obtained.
