  • Publication number: 20160257983
    Abstract: A process for the production of a glycoconjugate by N-glycosylation of a protein or peptide comprising the sequence D/E-X—N—X—S/T, wherein each X is the same or different and is any natural amino acid other than proline, wherein the process comprises reacting the protein or peptide with a polyisoprenyl pyrophosphate of formula (I), or a salt thereof, in the presence of PglB: (I) to produce the glycoconjugate comprising the protein or peptide having a saccharide [SI] linked to the asparagine in the sequence D/E-X—N—X—S/T. Polyisoprenylpyrophosphates used as substrates in the biocatalytic process are also provided, as well as certain glycoconjugates.

  • Patent number: 9238830
    Abstract: Described herein are methods and systems for O-glycosylating proteins in vivo or in vitro in any prokaryotic organism. In these methods and systems, DNA comprising a gene that produces a PglL-like oligosaccharyltransferase and DNA comprising a gene that produces a protein to be O-glycosylated are used. The PglL-like oligosaccharyltransferase facilitates the covalent attachment of the glycan to the protein to produce the O-glycosylated protein. The methods and systems described herein provide an approach for the design and production of new vaccines and therapeutic agents for the treatment of various diseases.
