The functional characteristics of a ${\beta}$-cyclodextrin glucanotransferase (CGTase) excreted from alkalophilic Bacillus sp. BL-31 that is highly specific for the intermolecular transglycosylation of bioflavonoids were investigated. The new ${\beta}$-CGTase showed high specificities for glycosyl acceptor bioflavonoids, including naringin, rutin, and hesperidin, and especially naringin. The transglycosylation of naringin into glycosyl naringin was then carried out under the conditions of 80 units of CGTase per gram of maltodextrin, 5 g/l of naringin, 25 g/l of maltodextrin, and 1 mM $Mn^{2+}$ ion at $40^{\circ}C$ for 6 h, resulting in a high conversion yield of 92.1%.

Enzymatic synthesis of glucosyl-sugar alcohols using various transglycosylating enzymes, such as cyclodextrin glucanotransferase (CGTase), ${\alpha}$-amylase, ${\alpha}$-glucosidase, and pullulanase was investigated using various sugar alcohols, such as sorbitol, xylitol, inositol, maltitol, and lactitol as glucosyl acceptors. CGTase showed the highest transglycosylating activity to sugar alcohols compared to other transglycosylating enzymes, and inositol and maltitol were the most suitable glucosyl acceptors. Soluble starch, extruded starch, cyclodextrins, and maltooligosaccharides were also identified to be adequate glucosyl donors for transglycosylation reaction of CGTase to sugar alcohols. The synthesis of glucosyl-maltitol in the reaction system using extruded starch as the glucosyl donor and maltitol as the glucosyl acceptor showed the best results showing the highest transglycosylation yield. The transglycosylation products were purified by activated carbon column chromatography with ethanol gradient elution. Chemical structures of above transglucosylated products were analyzed by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and two products were identified to be maltotritol and maltotetraitol, in which one or two glucose molecules attached to the parent maltitol molecule by a ${\alpha}$-l,4-glucosidic bond, respectively.

Leuconostoc mesenteroides B-512FMCM, 742CB3, 1299C의 dextransucrase들의 glycosyl기 전이 특성을 수용체 반응과 transglycosylation반응을 통해 확인하였다. 수용체 반응의 경우 10% sucrose에 수용체로 4% maltose를 첨가하여 반응시켰고 transglycosylation반응은 다른 크기, 다른 농도 그리고 다른 종류의 가지 결합의 dextran 을 합성하는 효소들을 이용하여 수행하였다. 각각의 효소들은 maltose를 이용한 수용체 반응에서 유사한 종류의 수용체 산물들을 합성한 것에 비해 세 dextransucrase들 (512FMCM, 742CB3, 1299C) 을 일정 비율로 혼합하여 maltose를 이용한 수용체 반응 결과 512FMCM 효소의 활성 비율을 줄이고 742CB3, 1299C 효소의 활성 비율을 증가시켰을 경우에는 ${\alpha}-1{\rightarrow}$3 의 가지결합이 많은 dextran 을 합성하였다. 또한, 세 가지 다른 구조의 dextran(T40, 742CB, B1299)에 100mM maltose을 수용체로 첨가해 각각의 dextransucrase(512FMCM, 742CB3, 1299C)와 transgly cosylation을 수행한 결과 1299C 효소가 세 종류의 dextran(T40, 742CB, B1299) 에 모두 가지 결합이 많은 dextran을 합성함을 확인하였다. 또한 ${\alpha}-1{\rightarrow}$6 결합으로 주로 이루어진 2%, 5% dextran(T10, T40, T7O, T500, T2000)에 dextransucrase(512FMCM, 742CB3, 1299C)를 반응시켜 기존의 dextran 보다 가지 결합이 더 많이 형성된 transglycosylation 산물을 합성하였다. 이때 maltose를 첨가했을 경우 이 수용 체에 의해 많은 ${\alpha}-1{\rightarrow}$6 가지 결합의 dextran 을 합성함을 확인하였다.

Two conserved amino acid residues in the extra sugar-binding space near the catalytic site of Thermus maltogenic amylase (ThMA) were analyzed for their role in the hydrolysis and transglycosylation activity of the enzyme. Site-directed mutagenesis was carried out by replacing N33l with a lysine (N331K), E332 with a histidine (E332H), or by replacing both residues at the same time (N331K/E332H). The measured $K_m$ values indicated that affinities toward all substrates tested, including starch, pullulan, ${\beta}-cyclomaltodextrin$, and acarbose, were lower in all the mutants compared to that of wild-type ThMA, leading to reduced hydrolysis activity. In addition, the lower ratio of transglycosylation to hydrolysis in the mutants compared to that in the wild-type ThMA indicated that these mutants preferred hydrolysis to the transglycosylation reaction. These results demonstrated that the conserved dipeptide at 331 and 332 of ThMA is directly involved in the formation and accumulation of transfer products by accommodating acceptor sugar molecules.

$\alpha$-Amylase 의 당전이반응에 의해 가용성전분으로부터 benzylalcohol-$\alpha$-glucoside(BG)를 합성하였다. 이 때 glycosyl 기의 공여체인 가용성전분 1%, glycosyl 기의 수용체인 benzylalcohol 90%, pH 5.0의 0.1M citrate 완충액 10%, Aspergillus oryzae 유래의 $\alpha$-amylase 10 unit를 함유하는 이상계(water-organic two phase )에서 당전이반응이 가장 효율적으로 일어났으며, $40^{\circ}C$, 80시간 정도의 반응에서 전문 10mg 으로부터 약 4mg 의 BG가 합성되었다. 합성초기에는 benzylalcohol-$\alpha$-maltoside(BM) 가 주로 생산되었다가 반응시간이 경과함에 따라 이는 가수분해되고 최종적으로는 BG 만이 생성되었다. 합성물질은 모두 환원력이 없고 $\alpha$-glucosidase 에 의해 가수분해되었드며 ESI-Mass 에 의해 분자량이 각각 270, 432로 측정되어 그 구조가 BG, BM 임을 확인하였다.

The transglycosylation activity of amylosucrase (ASase) has received significant attention owing to its use of an inexpensive donor, sucrose, and broad acceptor specificity, including glycone and aglycone compounds. The transglycosylation reaction of recombinant ASase from Deinococcus radiopugnans (DRpAS) was investigated using various phenolic compounds, and quercetin-3-O-rutinoside (rutin) was found to be the most suitable acceptor molecule used by DRpAS. Two amino acid residues in DRpAS variants (DRpAS Q299K and DRpAS Q299R), assumed to be involved in acceptor binding, were constructed by site-directed mutagenesis. Intriguingly, DRpAS Q299K and DRpAS Q299R produced 10-fold and 4-fold higher levels of rutin transglycosylation product than did the wild-type (WT) DRpAS, respectively. According to in silico molecular docking analysis, the lysine residue at position 299 in the mutants enables rutin to more easily position inside the active pocket of the mutant enzyme than in that of the WT, due to conformational changes in loop 4.

${\beta}$-Glucosylglycerol (${\beta}-GG$) and their derivatives have potential applications in food, cosmetics and the healthcare industry, including antitumor medications. In this study, ${\beta}-GG$ and its unnatural glycosides were synthesized through the transglycosylation of two enzymes, Sulfolobus shibatae ${\beta}$-glycosidase (SSG) and Deinococcus geothermalis amylosucrase (DGAS). SSG catalyzed a transglycosylation reaction with glycerol as an acceptor and cellobiose as a donor to produce 56% of ${\beta}-GGs$ [${\beta}$-$\text\tiny{D}$-glucopyranosyl-($1{\rightarrow}1/3$)-$\text\tiny{D}$-glycerol and ${\beta}$-$\text\tiny{D}$-glucopyranosyl-($1{\rightarrow}2$)-$\text\tiny{D}$-glycerol]. In the second transglycosylation reaction, ${\beta}$-$\text\tiny{D}$-glucopyranosyl-($1{\rightarrow}1/3$)-$\text\tiny{D}$-glycerol was used as acceptor molecules of the DGAS reaction. As a result, 61% of ${\alpha}$-$\text\tiny{D}$-glucopyranosyl-($1{\rightarrow}4$)-${\beta}$-$\text\tiny{D}$-glucopyranosyl-($1{\rightarrow}1/3$)-$\text\tiny{D}$-glycerol and 28% of ${\alpha}$-$\text\tiny{D}$-maltopyranosyl-($1{\rightarrow}4$)-${\beta}$-$\text\tiny{D}$-glucopyranosyl-($1{\rightarrow}1/3$)-$\text\tiny{D}$-glycerol were synthesized as unnatural glucosylglycerols. In conclusion, the combined enzymatic synthesis of the unnatural glycosides of ${\beta}-GG$ was established. The synthesis of these unnatural glycosides may provide an opportunity to discover new applications in the biotechnological industry.

A novel suspension-phase enzyme reaction system for the intermolecular transglycosylation of L-ascorbic acid into 2-O-${\alpha}$-D-glucopyranosyl L-ascorbic acid supplementing extrusion starch as the glycosyl donor was developed using cyclodextrin glucanotransferase from Thermoanaerobacter sp. A high conversion yield compared to the conventional soluble-phase enzyme reaction system using cyclodextrins and soluble starch was achieved. The optimal reaction conditions were 2,000 units of cycIodextrin glucanotransferase, 20 g/l of L-ascorbic acid, and 50 g/l of extrusion starch at $50^{\circ}C$ for 24 h. The new suspension-phase enzyme reaction system also exhibited several distinct advantages other than a high conversion yield, including a lower accumulation of oligosaccharides and easily separable residual extrusion starch by centrifugation or filtration in the reaction mixture, which will facilitate the purification of 2-O-${\alpha}$-D-glucopyranosyl L-ascorbic acid. The new suspension-phase enzyme reaction system seems to be potentially applicable as the industrial process for the production of thermally and oxidatively stable 2-O-${\alpha}$-D-glucopyranosyl L-ascorbic acid.

Maltosyl(G2)-erythritol, produced by the transglycosylation reaction of erythritol with maltotriose by Bacillus stearothermophilus maltogenic amylase, was not utilized either as a substrate for lactic acid production or for water-insoluble glucan synthesis. An inhibition assay of dextransucrase and mutansucrase showed that the dental caries suppression effect of G2-erythritol was greater than that of erythritol.
