A new method for the preparation of [14C]trehalose was developed, based on the ability of yeast cells to accumulate trehalose under stress. The method is simple and reliable. It utilizes a yeast strain in which the gene that encodes for phosphoglucoisomerase has been deleted. Thus, exogenously supplied glucose is not metabolized, but is instead converted to trehalose. The [14C]-trehalose obtained is pure, it is hydrolyzed by trehalase, and it is not susceptible to the action of alpha-glucosidase. The yield of this method is in the order of 35% of the [14C]glucose supplied.
基于酵母细胞在应激状态下积累海藻糖的能力,开发了一种制备[14C]海藻糖的新方法。该方法简单可靠。它利用了一种编码磷酸葡萄糖异构酶的基因已被删除的酵母菌株。因此,外源提供的葡萄糖不会被代谢,而是转化为海藻糖。所获得的[14C]海藻糖是纯的,它能被海藻糖酶水解,并且不易受α-葡萄糖苷酶的作用影响。该方法的产率约为所提供[14C]葡萄糖的35%。
