Enzymatic transglycosylation using p-nitrophenyl alpha-D-rhamnopyranoside as the glycosyl donor and 6equiv of ethyl 1-thio-alpha-D-rhamnopyranoside as the glycosyl acceptor yielded a D-rhamnooligosaccharide derivative. The reaction was catalyzed by jack bean alpha-mannosidase in a 1:1 (v/v) mixture of 0.1 M sodium citrate buffer (pH4.5)-MeCN at 25 degrees C. The enzyme exhibited high catalytic activity for the reaction, to afford in 32.1% isolated yield (based on donor substrate) ethyl alpha-D-rhamnopyranosyl-(1-->2)-1-thio-alpha-D-rhamnopyranoside, which is a derivative of the common oligosaccharide unit of the antigenic lipopolysaccharides from Pseudomonas.

In order for facilitating the synthesis of oligosaccharides, transglycosylation reactions mediated by glycoside hydrolases have been studied in various contexts. In this study, we examined the transglycosylating activity of a Golgi endo-α-mannosidase. We prepared various glycosyl donors and acceptors, and recombinant human Golgi endo-α-mannosidase and its various mutants were expressed.

1,5-D-mannoseptanosyl di- and trisaccharide ring-size isomers of the corresponding mannopyranosyl oligosaccharides have been prepared. Remarkably, these compounds show no inhibition of the alpha-mannosidase-catalyzed hydrolysis of p-nitrophenyl-alpha-D-mannopyranoside.

Incubation of a Spodoptera frugiperda (IPLB-SF-21AE) cell extract with the oligosaccharide Man9GlcNAc2, the aglucosyl derivative of the glycan that is normally transferred from the dolichol carrier to the relevant Asn residue in the nascent protein, results in its trimming to Man6GlcNAc2, an intermediate that is relatively stable to further alpha-D-mannosidase action in these cells. On the other hand, incubation of a similar extract from cells that had been infected for various times with a wild-type baculovirus (Autographa californica nuclear polyhedrosis virus) or a recombinant baculovirus (r-BAC)/human plasminogen (HPg) construct employed for expression of HPg led to rapid trimming of Man6GlcNAc2 to Man5GlcNAc2 and Man3GlcNAc2. These latter reactions displayed temporal effects, in that an enhancement of this latter trimming process occurred as a function of the time of infection of the cells with the wild-type and recombinant viral constructs.
