An elaboration on the syn-anti proton donor concept of glycoside hydrolases: electrostatic stabilisation of the transition state as a general strategy.

An in silico survey of all known 3D-structures of glycoside hydrolases that contain a ligand in the -1 subsite is presented. A recurrent crucial positioning of active site residues indicates a common general strategy for electrostatic stabilisation directed to the carbohydrate's ring-oxygen at the transition state. This is substantially different depending on whether the enzyme's proton donor is syn or anti positioned versus the substrate. A comprehensive list of enzymes belonging to 42 different families is given and selected examples are described. An implication for an early evolution scenario of glycoside hydrolases is discussed.

DPPH radical scavenging activity of two flavonol glycosides from Aconitum napellus sp. lusitanicum.

The DPPH radical scavenging activity of two flavonol glycosides obtained from ethanolic extracts of Aconitum napellus sp. lusitanicum was studied. The results showed a high DPPH antiradical activity of compound 1 (quercetin 3-O-(6-trans-caffeoyl)-beta-glucopyranosyl-(1-->2)-beta-glucopyranosyl-7-O-alpha-rhamnopyranoside) when compared with compound 2 (quercetin-3-sophoroside-7-rhamnopyranoside), rutin and ascorbic acid. The relationship between the caffeoyl and rhamnopyranoside groups in the flavonol glycosides structures and the DPPH antiradical activity was also discussed.

Effect of the adaptation to high bile salts concentrations on glycosidic activity, survival at low PH and cross-resistance to bile salts in Bifidobacterium.

Six derivatives with increased resistance to ox gall (MIC: > or = 1% w/v) and one derivative resistant to sodium cholate (MIC: 0.8% w/v) were obtained from more sensitive original Bifidobacterium strains. These microorganisms, and two additional cholate resistant derivatives obtained in a previous study (Int. J. Food Microbiol. 82 (2003) 191), were partially characterised in this study. Acquisition of resistance against a given bile salt, also conferred cross-resistance to other bile salts, and promoted an increase in the survival of these microorganisms at low pH. Bile resistance levels of derivatives were dependent on the external pH so that the resistance was lower at neutral pH values than in acidic environments. In addition, the acquisition of bile resistance induced changes on glycoside-hydrolysing activities of derivatives obtained from five out of eight original strains, with certain activities such as beta-glucosidase showing more than tenfold increases in some of these microorganisms. These data suggest that the exposure to high bile salts concentrations may have induced a synergic response on Bifidobacterium for the adaptation to the conditions of the gastrointestinal tract. This could have improved the survival at low pH in these microorganisms, the resistance to high bile salts concentrations, and the assimilation of non-digestible carbohydrates by the enhancement of some glycoside-hydrolysing activities.

In situ formation of C-glycosides during electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry of a series of synthetic amphiphilic cholesteryl polyethoxy neoglycolipids containing N-acetyl-D-glucosamine.

In this communication, the structural analysis of six synthetic O-Linked amphiphilic cholesteryl polyethoxy neoglycolipids containing N-acetyl-D-glucosamine was performed by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry in the positive ion mode, with a QqTOF-MS/MS hybrid instrument. The MS/MS analyses provided evidence for the "in situ" formation, in the collision cell of the tandem mass spectrometer, of an unexpected and unique [C-glycoside]+ product ion, resulting from an ion-molecule reaction between the N-acetyl-D-glucosamine oxonium ion and the neutral cholesta-3,5-diene molecule. Quasi MS3 analysis of this ion resulted in the dissociation of the precursor [C-glycoside]+ ion, which produced the expected third generation N-acetyl-D-glucosamine oxonium and the protonated cholesta-3,5-diene product ions.

Flavonol glycosides from the leaves of Eucommia ulmoides O. with glycation inhibitory activity.

Eucommia ulmoides leaves have been used as a folk remedy for the treatment of diabetes in Korea. The aim of this study was to isolate and identify the compounds which inhibited advanced glycation end-product formation, one of main molecular mechanisms implicated in diabetic complications. A new flavonol glycoside, quercetin 3-O-alpha-L-arabinopyranosyl-(1-->2)-beta-D-glucopyranoside (1), and known flavonols kaempferol 3-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside (astragalin) (2), quercetin 3-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside (isoquercitrin) (3) were isolated from the leaves of Eucommia ulmoides. These compounds exhibited glycation inhibitory activity comparable to that of aminoguanidine, a known glycation inhibitor. The results suggest that the flavonol glycosides with glycation inhibitory activity could be attributed to the anti-diabetic action of Eucommia ulmoides leaves.

The simultaneous determination of selected flavonol glycosides and aglycones in Ginkgo biloba oral dosage forms by high-performance liquid chromatography-electrospray ionisation-mass spectrometry.

An accurate, precise and sensitive liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometric (LC-MS-MS) method was developed for the determination of two flavonol glycosides, rutin and quercitrin, together with the algycone markers, quercetin, kaempferol and isorhamnetin in several Ginkgo biloba solid oral dosage forms. In addition, a novel quercetin glycoside, not yet reported in Ginkgo extracts, was identified. Liquid chromatography was performed using a minibore high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) column (150 mm x 2.0mm i.d.) and a one step gradient of acetonitrile-formic acid (0.3%) at a flow rate of 0.5 ml/min. Baseline separation of the five selected flavonol marker compounds was achieved within 20 min at 45 degrees C. Tandem mass spectrometry was performed using electrospray ionisation (ESI) in the negative ion mode. The marker compounds exhibited linearity over the range of 3-26 microg/ml and intra- and inter-day standard deviations were better than 7% and 16%, respectively. All Ginkgo products investigated were found to contain varying amounts of target analytes.

Glycosides of tricetin methyl ethers as chemosystematic markers in Stachys subgenus Betonica.

Nine species from the genus Stachys L. representing subgenera Stachys and Betonica were surveyed for flavonoid glycosides by means of HPLC coupled to diode-array detection and LC-APCI-MS. Those species belonging to subgenus Betonica were characterised by the presence of glycosides of tricetin methyl ethers, including a new derivative, which was isolated from S. scardica Griseb. and identified as tricetin 3',4',5' -trimethyl ether 7-O-beta-glucopyranoside by spectroscopic methods. This type of flavonoid was absent from species belonging to subgenus Stachys and can be considered as a chemosystematic marker for subgenus Betonica.

Acylated quercetagetin glycosides with antioxidant activity from Tagetes maxima.

The fractionation of a methanolic extract of Tagetes maxima guided for antioxidant activity resulted in the isolation of three acylated quercetagetin glycosides, quercetagetin-7-O-(6-O-caffeoyl-beta-D-glucopyranoside), quercetagetin-7-O-(6-O-p-coumaroyl-beta-D-glucopyranoside) and quercetagetin-7-O-(6-O-galloyl-beta-D-glucopyranoside), as well as four known flavonoid glycosides. The structural elucidation was accomplished by spectroscopic methods (ESI-MS/MS and NMR). The antioxidant activity of fractions and isolated compounds was determined by checking the scavenging activity against three different radicals: 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl free radical (DPPH*), hydroxyl (*OH), and superoxide (O2*-). The three isolated compounds exhibited a high radical scavenging activity in comparison with reference compounds.

Novel catalytic mechanism of glycoside hydrolysis based on the structure of an NAD+/Mn2+ -dependent phospho-alpha-glucosidase from Bacillus subtilis.

GlvA, a 6-phospho-alpha-glucosidase from Bacillus subtilis, catalyzes the hydrolysis of maltose-6'-phosphate and belongs to glycoside hydrolase family GH4. GH4 enzymes are unique in their requirement for NAD(H) and a divalent metal for activity. We have determined the crystal structure of GlvA in complex with its ligands to 2.05 A resolution. Analyses of the active site architecture, in conjunction with mechanistic studies and precedent from the nucleotide diphosphate hexose dehydratases and other systems, suggest a novel mechanism of glycoside hydrolysis by GlvA that involves both the NAD(H) and the metal.
