Enzymic Production of Sweet Stevioside Derivatives: Transglucosylation by Glucosidases.

The production of glucosone from carbohydrates by enzymic action.

Synthesis and Production of Sweet-Tasting Protein in E. coli and Purification by Amylose Resin

A sweet water-soluble protein that reminds stable over wide ranges of temperature and pH, Brazzein has various applications. Its tastes like cane sugar but have no calories. However, the extraction of brazzein from its natural source is expensive and not applicable. In this study we used recombinant DNA technology to provide an alternative option for cheaper mass production of brazzein. A brazz...

Synthesis and Enzymic Hydrolysis of Acylated Adenosine Derivatives

Various derivatives of adenosine were prepared by acylation of adenosine (6-amino-9-(bD-ribofuranosyl)purine (1) with different molar equivalents of acetic anhydride and/or pivaloyl chloride in pyridine. Compounds 6-acetylamino-9-[(2,3,5-tri-O-acetyl)-b-Dribofuranosyl]purine (3), 6-amino-9-[(2,3,5-tri-O-acetyl)-b-D-ribofuranosyl]purine (4), and 6-pivaloylamino-9-[(2,3,5-tri-O-pivaloyl)-b-D-ribo...
