The aim of this research is to develop a model to describe oligosaccharide synthesis and simultaneously lactose hydrolysis. Model A (engineering approach) and model B (biochemical approach) were used to describe the data obtained in batch experiments with -galactosidase from Bacillus circulans at v

✦ Synopsis
- 4)-D-GlcpNAc) was synthesized regioselectively with the aid of the transglycosylation activity of P-galactosidase isolated from Diplococcus pneumoniae using p-nitrophenyl P-o-galactopyranoside as the donor. Also, transglycosylation of the sialyl group in an ~(2 + g&linked sialic acid dimer or p-nitrophenyl glycoside of sialic acid to N-acetyl-lactosamine was performed using sialidases of various origins. When sialidase from Clostridium perfringens, Arthrobacter ureafaciens, or vibrio cholerae was used, a-(2 + 6)-linked sialyl N-acetyl-lactosamine was obtained regioselectively. In contrast, when sialidase from newcastle disease virus was used, the (u-(2 + 3)-linked isomer was obtained regioselectively.
The regioselectivity of the transglycosylation reaction using p-galactosidase and sialidase was compared with hydrolysis specificity toward the same linkages.
