beta-D-Gal-(1-->4)-beta-D-Glc-OC6H4NO2-p and its isomers (beta-D-Gal-(1-->3)-beta-D-Glc-OC6H4NO2-p and beta-D-Gal-(1-->6)-beta-D-Glc-OC6H4NO2-p) were synthesized from lactose and beta-D-Glc-OC6H4NO2-p, using transglycosylation by the beta-D-galactosidase from Bacillus circulans. This reaction was efficient enough for us to do a one-pot preparation of galactosyl-glucoside from lactose. The order of the production of the transfer products was (1-->4) > > (1-->3) > (1-->6) in the initial stage of the reaction, and the same relationship was observed for the hydrolytic rate toward the three galactosyl-glucosides. The production of (1-->4)- and (1-->3)-linkages greatly decreased during the subsequent reaction and much more of the (1-->6)- than of the (1-->4)- and (1-->3)-transfer products was found in the later stage of the reaction.

D004187 Disaccharides Oligosaccharides containing two monosaccharide units linked by a glycosidic bond. Disaccharide
D005690 Galactose An aldohexose that occurs naturally in the D-form in lactose, cerebrosides, gangliosides, and mucoproteins. Deficiency of galactosyl-1-phosphate uridyltransferase (GALACTOSE-1-PHOSPHATE URIDYL-TRANSFERASE DEFICIENCY DISEASE) causes an error in galactose metabolism called GALACTOSEMIA, resulting in elevations of galactose in the blood. D-Galactose,Galactopyranose,Galactopyranoside,D Galactose
D005960 Glucosides A GLYCOSIDE that is derived from GLUCOSE. Glucoside
D006031 Glycosylation The synthetic chemistry reaction or enzymatic reaction of adding carbohydrate or glycosyl groups. GLYCOSYLTRANSFERASES carry out the enzymatic glycosylation reactions. The spontaneous, non-enzymatic attachment of reducing sugars to free amino groups in proteins, lipids, or nucleic acids is called GLYCATION (see MAILLARD REACTION). Protein Glycosylation,Glycosylation, Protein
D001407 Bacillus A genus of BACILLACEAE that are spore-forming, rod-shaped cells. Most species are saprophytic soil forms with only a few species being pathogenic. Bacillus bacterium
