Sintesis Alkil N-asetilglukosamina (Alkil-GlcNAc) dengan Enzim N-asetilheksosaminidase yang diisolasi dari Aspergillus sp. 501

ABSTRACT: Enzymatic Synthesis of Alkyl N-acetylglucosamine (Alkyl-GlcNAc) by Application of Transglycosylation Activity of β-N-Acetylhexosaminidase from Aspergillus sp. 501. β-NAcetylhexosaminidase from Aspergillus sp. 501 has transglycosylation and hydrolytic activity. Transglycosylation occur through transfer of N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) which washydrolyzed from p-nitrophenyl-β-N-acetylglucosamine (pNP-GlcNAc) to various alcohols. Thetransglycosylation product was determined by Thin Layer Chromatography and High Performance Liquid Chromatography. Using this transglycosylation activity the novel compound of Alkyl-GlcNAc was synthesized using N-acetylchitotriose as a donor and an ethanol as an acceptor.
Keywords: Alkyl N-acetylglucosamine, Transglycosylation, β-N-Acetylhexosaminidase, Aspergillus sp. 501
