摘要
An efficient enzymatic assembly strategy was developed for the concise synthesis of structurally well-defined sialylated chitooligosaccharides.Two enzyme modules for theβ-1,3-N-acetyl-glucosaminylation andβ-1,4-galactosylation were applied for the grafting N-acetyl lactosamine(LacNAc)unit(s)onto the chitooligosaccharides.The LacNAc grafted chitooligosaccharides were further modified withα-2,3-orα-2,6-sialylation by two enzymatic sialylation modules to generate a total of 20 sialylated chitooligosaccharides.The inhibition study of influenza virus-induced cytopathy with synthetic sialylated chitooligosaccharides indicated that the sialic acid linkage and chain length both contribute to the binding preference and inhibition potency.
