Recent Developments in Glycoside Synthesis with Glycosynthases and Thioglycoligases
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Glycosynthases are hydrolytically incompetent engineered glycosidases that catalyze the high-yielding synthesis of glycoconjugates from glycosyl fluoride donor substrates and appropriate acceptors. Glycosynthases from more than 10 glycoside hydrolase families have now been generated, allowing the synthesis of a wide range of oligosaccharides. Recent examples include glycosynthase-mediated syntheses of xylo-oligosaccharides, xyloglucans, glycolipids, and aryl glycosides. Glycosynthases have also now been generated from inverting glycosidases, increasing the range of enzyme scaffolds. Improvement of glycosynthase activity and broadening of specificity has been achieved through directed evolution approaches, and several novel high-throughput screens have been developed to allow this. Finally, metabolically stable glycoside analogues have been generated using another class of mutant glycosidases: thioglycoligases. Recent developments in all these aspects are discussed.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
