Sialic acids are common terminal carbohydrates on cell surface. Together with internal carbohydrate structures, they play important roles in many physiological and pathological processes. In order to obtain alpha 2-3-sialylated oligosaccharides, a highly efficient one-pot three-enzyme synthetic approach was applied. The P. multocida alpha 2-3-sialyltransferase (PmST1) involved in the synthesis was a multifunctional enzyme with extremely flexible donor and acceptor substrate specificities. Sialyltransferase acceptors, including type 1 structure (Gal beta 1-3GlcNAc beta ProN(3)), type 2 structures (Gal beta 1-4GlcNAc beta ProN(3) and 6-sulfo-Gal beta 1-4GlcNAc beta ProN(3)), type 4 structure (Gal beta 1-3GalNAc beta ProN(3)), type 3 or core 1 structure (Gal beta 1-3GalNAc alpha ProN(3)) and human milk oligoscaccharide or lipooligosaccharide lacto-N-tetraose (LNT) (Gal beta 1-3GlcNAc beta 1-3Gal beta 1-4Glc beta ProN(3)), were chemically synthesized. They were then used in one-pot three-enzyme reactions with sialic acid precursor ManNAc or ManNGc, to synthesize a library of naturally occurring alpha 2-3-linked sialosides with different internal sugar structures. The sialylated oligosaccharides obtained are valuable probes for their biological studies.
