DOI: 10.1002/cbic.201700320
Abstract: Functionalized rare sugars were synthesized with 2‐, 3‐, and 6‐tosylated glucose derivatives as acceptor substrates by transglucosylation with sucrose and the glucansucrase GTFR from Streptococcus oralis. The 2‐ and 3‐tosylated glucose derivatives yielded the corresponding… read more here.
