Immobilization of UDP‐Galactose on an Amphiphilic Resin

Nucleotide sugars are activated sugar precursors used by glycosyltransferases to form glycans. Here we report the first examples of resin‐bound nucleotide sugars: fluorinated UDP‐galactose and UDP‐galactose. They were conjugated to a polyethylene glycol resin through the C6 position with an SMCC lin...

Description
Summary:Nucleotide sugars are activated sugar precursors used by glycosyltransferases to form glycans. Here we report the first examples of resin‐bound nucleotide sugars: fluorinated UDP‐galactose and UDP‐galactose. They were conjugated to a polyethylene glycol resin through the C6 position with an SMCC linker in good to excellent yields. This synthesis represents an efficient method to access resin‐bound nucleotide sugars in a modular approach that enables modifications of the sugar or nucleotide before conjugation. The system has been conceived as a new chemistry‐based screening system for enzymes that use UDP‐galactose. Here we report the first example of resin‐bound nucleotide sugars: fluorinated UDP‐Galactose and UDP‐Galactose. This synthesis represents an efficient method to access resin‐bound nucleotide sugars in a modular approach that enables modifications of the sugar or nucleotide before conjugation.
