Abstract
Enzymatic degradation of locust bean gum provides a Manβ(1 → 4)Man disaccharide, which may be converted into the core Manβ(1 → 4)GlcNAc disaccharide unit of all N-glycans via conversion to a 2-iodo-glycosyl azide, and Lafont rearrangement. The Manβ(1 → 4)GlcNAc disaccharide may be used as a key intermediate for elaboration into more complex N-glycan structures providing a route to N-glycan oxazolines as donor substrates for ENGase enzymes that is considerably shorter than those reported previously.
