Mono- or Di- Fucosylated Lactose-based Cell-free System Construction Service
The Effective Production of Mono- or Di- Fucosylated Lactose Based on Cell-free System Construction at CD BioGlyco
At CD BioGlyco, our service encompasses a comprehensive approach to the synthesis of mono- or di-fucosylated lactose structures within a Cell-free Environment. We leverage advanced techniques to select and incorporate appropriate glycosyltransferases (GTs) into the construction process. By screening α1,3 and α1,2 GTs from H. pylori and designing pathways with the suitable GTs, we ensure the precise assembly of glycosylation pathways tailored to our clients' needs.
Our service involves the synthesis of enzymes through separate cell-free protein synthesis (CFPS) reactions, followed by the strategic combination with suitable sugar donors to initiate in vitro glycosylation (IVG) reactions. Through meticulous optimization of reaction conditions, we strive to enhance the efficiency and yield of mono- or di-fucosylated lactose synthesis. Based on our cell-free system, we provide a powerful Cell-based Production Chassis Library, and clients also can choose the interested chassis cell and work together to Develop the Custom Chassis.

- Select the GTs involved in the fucosylation of lactose. In this case, it needs to select α1,3 and α1,2 fucosyltransferases.
- Design the biosynthetic pathway by combining the selected GTs with the necessary enzymes for lactose synthesis. In this case, it needs enzymes such as ApNGT (N-glycosyltransferase) and NmLgtB (lactose synthase).
- Express and optimize the soluble expression of each GT using CFPS, which involves expressing the GT genes in a CFPS system and optimizing the conditions for high yield and solubility.
- Synthesize the enzymes and GTs for glycan extension in separate CFPS reactions, which involves expressing the enzymes and GTs required for lactose synthesis separately in CFPS reactions.
- Mix the CFPS products containing the enzymes and GTs with appropriate sugar donors to form IVG reactions, which involves combining the CFPS products with the necessary sugar donors for fucosylation.
- Purify the IVG products and analyze them using mass spectrometry (MS) to confirm the presence of fucosylated lactose.
