A trisaccharide, 6d-Altro-Hepp$\alpha$ (1$\rightarrow$3) GlcNAc$\beta$ (1$\rightarrow$3) Gal$\alpha$ (1$\rightarrow$$OCH_2CH_2N_3$, as an O-antigenic repeating unit of Campylobacter jejuni serotypes O:23 and O:36, was synthesized. Coupling of the 6d-altro-Hepp$\alpha$ (1$\rightarrow$3) GlcNAc$\beta$ (1$\rightarrow$SEt donor with Gal$\alpha$ (1${\rightarrow}OCH_2CH_2Cl$ acceptor in the presence of NIS-TfOH promoter afforded the trisaccharide having the $\beta$ (1$\rightarrow$3) Gal linkage. $\beta$ -Stereospecificity and the desired regioselectivity for the 3-OH Gal are obtained. Subsequent hydrogenation, acetylation, azide displacement, hydrazinolysis, Nacetylation, and finally deacetylation furnished the title trisaccharide hapten for further glycoconjugation.

Carbohydrase enzymes in honey catalyze transglucosylation reactions which result in the formation of structurally similar oligosaccharides. These oligosaccharides make up a small portion of the total carbohydrates in honey. These minor oligosaccharides in native-bee honeys were identified and quantitated employing trimethylsilylation by capillary Gas Chromatography. The minor oligosaccharides found in honey were eight disaccharides and five trisaccharides. The main oligosaccharide components of honey were erlose, maltose, turanose and sucrose.

A trisaccharide, GlcNAcp- ${\beta}-(1{\to}3)-Galp-{\alpha}-(1{\to}2)$-6-deoxy-altroHepp- ${\alpha}-(1{\to}O$-propyl, as an O-antigenic repeating unit of C. jejuni serotype O:23 and O:36 was synthesized. Coupling of the GlcNPhth-(1${\to}$3)-Gal disaccharide donor with allyl 6-deoxy-altroHep acceptor in the presence of iodonium dicollidine perchlorate (IDCP) promoter afforded the ${\alpha}$-galactosidic trisaccharide with high stereoselectivities. Subsequent deacetalation, dephthaloylation, N-acetylation, and hydrogenolytic debenzylation furnished the title compound.

A trisaccharide, the O-antigenic repeating unit of C. jejuni serotype O:23 and O:36, was synthesized as a 2 -azidoethyl glycoside by block addition of perbenzylated thiogalactoside donors to $\alpha$-altroHepp-(1$\rightarrow$3)-GlcNPhth disaccharide acceptor in presence of IDCP promoter. The $\alpha$-linked altroheptopyranoside moiety in the glycosyl acceptor was effectively prepared by Swern oxidation of $\alpha$-mannohepp-(1$\rightarrow$3)-GlcNPhth disaccharide followed by mild reduction with1 $NaCNBH_3$.

A new quercetin 3-O-trisaccharide was isolated from the leaves of Rubus crataegifolius (Rosaceae). The structure of this compound was determined as quercetin $3-O-{\alpha}-L-arabinofuranosyl-(1{\rightarrow}2)-{\beta}-D-xylopyranosyl-(1{\rightarrow}2)-{\beta}-D-galactopyranoside$ on the basis of 2D-NMR spectroscopic data. This flavonol glycoside was isolated for the first time from a natural source.

The effects of $\beta$-(1,6)-galactosyl trehalose trisaccharide ($\beta$-GT) that was preferentially produced by Escherichia coli $\beta$-galactosidase on cryo- and thermo-protections of protein were investigated with those of other sugars at the level of 8% (w/v). As compared to a control without sugar additive, $\beta$-GT effectively enhanced 32-54% of the cryoprotection of fish actomyosin against repeated freeze-thawing and frozen storage, and also 49% of the protection against thermal inactivation of pyrophosphatase, respectively. As a result, it was significantly more effective than sorbitol and trehalose in both cryoprotection and thermoprotection. Thus, $\beta$-GT would be possibly applied as a sugar substitute for cryo- and thermo-protective applications of food protein.

Among 116 bacterial strains isolated from Korean fermented foods, one strain (SS-76) was selected for producing new oligosaccharides in a basal medium containing maltose as the sole source of carbon. Upon morphological characterization using scanning electron microscopy, the cells of strain SS-76 appeared rod-shaped; subsequent 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis revealed that strain SS-76 was phylogenetically close to Bacillus subtilis. The main oligosaccharide fraction B extracted from the culture supernatant of B. subtilis SS-76 was purified by high performance liquid chromatography. Subsequent structural analysis revealed that this oligosaccharide consisted only of glucose, and methylation analysis indicated similar proportions of glucopyranosides in the 6-linkage, 4-linkage, and non-reducing terminal positions. Matrix-assisted laser-induced/ionization time-of-flight/mass spectrometry and electrospray ionization-based liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry analyses suggested that this oligosaccharide consisted of a trisaccharide unit with 1,6- and 1,4-glycosidic linkages. The anomeric signals in the $^1H$-nuclear magnetic resonance spectrum corresponded to ${\alpha}$-anomeric configurations, and the trisaccharide was finally identified as panose (${\alpha}$-D-glucopyranosyl-1,6-${\alpha}$-D-glucopyranosyl-1,4-D-glucose). These results suggest that B. subtilis SS-76 converts maltose into panose; strain SS-76 may thus find industrial application in the production of panose.

O-Antigenic part of Campylobacter jejuni gram negative bacteria was reported to consist of a repeated trisaccharide unit. The disaccharides, GlcNAc-Gal derivatives, as key intermediates for the synthesis of trisaccharide repeating units were synthesized. At the $\beta(1{\to}3)$ glycoside bond formation step between 3,4,6-tri-O-acctyl-2-deoxy-2-N-phthalimido-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranosyl bromide and galactosyl acceptors, high regioselectivities between 2, 3, and 4-OH groups of galactosyl acceptors were found. As a result, no further selective protection steps for OH groups of galactosyl acceptors was necessary, and more effective and compact synthetic scheme was achieved.

This study carried out development of a natural antimicrobial agent from Schima wallichii ssp. liukiuensis. Compound I exhibiting potent antimicrobial activity against Candida spp. was isolated from the methanol extracts of Schima wallichii ssp. liukiuensis. The structure of I identified as a sterol glycoside consisted of a trisaccharide and ${\alpha}_1$-sitosterol. Trisaccharide composed of L-rhamnose, D-galactose and D-glucose residues. The antimicrobial activity of I was selective on yeast rather than bacteria or other fungi. Compound I was demonstrated to be ineffective against toxicity to mouse liver cells where as protective to human dermal fibroblast cells at low concentrations. Thus, it is reasonable to expect a sterol glycoside (I) as a valuable alternative for synthetic antifungal.

In this study, a galactooligosaccharide (GOS) was synthesized using active ${\beta}$-galactosidase (${\beta}$-gal) inclusion bodies (IBs)-containing Escherichia coli (E. coli) cells. Analysis by MALDI-TOF (matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight) mass spectrometry revealed that a trisaccharide was the major constituent of the synthesized GOS mixture. Additionally, the optimal pH, lactose concentration, amounts of E. coli ${\beta}$-gal IBs, and temperature for GOS synthesis were 7.5, 500 g/l, 3.2 U/ml, and $37^{\circ}C$, respectively. The total GOS yield from 500 g/l of lactose under these optimal conditions was about 32%, which corresponded to 160.4 g/l of GOS. Western blot analyses revealed that ${\beta}$-gal IBs were gradually destroyed during the reaction. In addition, when both the reaction mixture and E. coli ${\beta}$-gal hydrolysate were analyzed by high-performance thin-layer chromatography (HP-TLC), the trisaccharide was determined to be galactosyl lactose, indicating that a galactose moiety was most likely transferred to a lactose molecule during GOS synthesis. This GOS synthesis system might be useful for the synthesis of galactosylated drugs, which have recently received significant attention owing to the ability of the galactose molecules to improve the drugs solubility while decreasing their toxicity. ${\beta}$-Gal IB utilization is potentially a more convenient and economic approach to enzymatic GOS synthesis, since no enzyme purification steps after the transgalactosylation reaction would be required.
