We have developed an efficient chemoenzymatic synthesis of heparan sulfate oligosaccharides employing the -nitrophenyl (-NP) β-glucuronide as an acceptor compatible with enzymatic elongation and one that significantly simplifies oligosaccharide purification on C-18 resin. Employing ceric ammonium nitrate as oxidative reagent to remove the -NP group unexpectedly also removed the glucuronic acid residue at the reducing-end, affording a smaller oligosaccharide. The application of ceric ammonium sulfate allowed the removal of the -NP without concomitant loss of the adjacent glucuronic acid offering a route to longer heparin sulfate oligosaccharide products.
我们已经开发出一种高效的化学酶促合成硫酸乙酰肝素寡糖的方法,该方法采用对硝基苯基(-NP)β-葡萄糖醛酸苷作为与酶促延伸兼容的受体,并且能显著简化在C-18树脂上的寡糖纯化过程。意外的是,使用硝酸铈铵作为氧化试剂去除-NP基团时,也去除了还原端的葡萄糖醛酸残基,从而得到了更小的寡糖。而硫酸铈铵的应用则能够去除-NP,同时不会导致相邻葡萄糖醛酸的损失,为获得更长的硫酸乙酰肝素寡糖产物提供了一条途径。
