Abstract

A combination of recombinant FKP and α-(1→3)-fucosyltransferase allows the facile synthesis of the sialyl Lewis X tetrasaccharide glycan and its derivatives in excellent yield. In this system, the universal fucosyl donor, guanidine 5′-diphosphate-β-l-fucose (GDP-fucose), or its analogues can be generated in situ by cofactor recycling using pyruvate kinase.
