Glycosynthase
text:
The term glycosynthase refers to a class of proteins that have been engineered to catalyze the formation of a glycosidic bond. Glycosynthase are derived from glycosidase enzymes, which catalyze the hydrolysis of glycosidic bonds. They were traditionally formed from retaining glycosidase by mutating the active site nucleophilic amino acid to a small non-nucleophilic amino acid. More modern approaches use directed evolution to screen for amino acid substitutions that enhance glycosynthase activity
