Patent ID: 10851174

Abstract:
A chemoenzymatic method for the preparation of a core-fucoslyated glycoprotein or glycopeptide, including (a) providing an acceptor selected from the group consisting of a fucosylated GlcNAc-protein and fucosylated GlcNAc-peptide; and (b) reacting the acceptor with a donor substrate including an activated oligosaccharide moiety, in the presence of an endoglycosidase (ENGase) selected from Endo;F1, Endo-F2, Endo-F3, Endo-D and related glycosynthase mutants to transfer the oligosaccharide moiety to the acceptor and yield the structure defined core-fucosylated glycoprotein or glycopeptide. The donor substrate includes, in a specific implementation, a synthetic oligosaccharide oxazoline. A related method of fucosylated glycoprotein or fucosylated glycopeptide remodeling with a predetermined natural N-glycan or a tailor-made oligosaccharide moiety, and a method of remodeling an antibody to include a predetermined sugar chain to replace a heterogeneous sugar chain, are also described.
