The role of pyridoxal 5'-phosphate and orthophosphate in general acid-base catalysis by alpha-glucan phosphorylases.

Cellobiose phosphorylase from Cellulomonas uda (CuCPase) is shown to utilize D-glucal as slow alternative donor substrate for stereospecific glycosyl transfer to inorganic phosphate, giving 2-deoxy-α-D-glucose 1-phosphate as the product. When performed in D(2)O, enzymatic phosphorolysis of D-glucal proceeds with incorporation

Biochemistry, 21(26), 6675-6684 (1982-12-21)
D-Glucal, containing a highly reactive double bond, can replace glucose 1-phosphate as the glucosyl donor in phosphorylase-catalyzed glucosyl transfer to a suitable oligo- or polysaccharide acceptor: D-glucal + Pi + (glucose)Pi leads to n 2-deoxy-alpha-D-glucosyl(glucose)n in equilibrium 2-deoxy-alpha-D-glucose-1-P + (glucose)n.

Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), 4H2 and 6H7, were prepared previously using a protein conjugate of a 1:1 epimeric mixture of the synthetic ABC-ring fragments of ciguatoxin (CTX), 3 and 4. Here, the interactions of these mAbs with the fragments of CTX

gem-Dibromocyclopropane 1, prepared from tri-O-benzyl-D-glucal, undergoes thermal and silver-promoted ring expansion in the presence of alcohols to give substituted oxepines. With further heating, ring contraction to highly substituted tetrahydrofurans follows. These represent C-furanosides, potentially useful as precursors to C-nucleosides and
