REACTION DIAGRAM
sucrose + leucrose
?

regioselectivity of alternansucrase differs from dextransucrase. Alternansucrase shows greater ability to use leucrose as an acceptor, alternansucrase continues to transfer glucosyl units to leucrose, resulting in some unusual glucosyl-fructose oligosaccharides

gentiobiose is better as an acceptor than isomaltose, acceptor products from gentiobiose, form in good yields (nearly 90% in unoptimized reactions). The initial product is a single trisaccharide, alpha-D-Glcp-(1-6)-beta-D-Glcp-(1-6)-D-Glc. Two tetrasaccharides are formed in approximately equal quantities: alpha-D-Glcp-(1-3)-alpha-D-Glcp-(1-6)-beta-D-Glcp-(1-6)-D-Glc and alpha-D-Glcp-(1-6)-alpha-D-Glcp-(1-6)-beta-D-Glcp-(1-6)-D-Glc. One pentasaccharide is isolated from the reaction mixture, alpha-D-Glcp-(1-6)-alpha-D-Glcp-(1-3)-alpha-D-Glcp-(1-6)-beta-D-Glcp-(1-6)-D-Glc

maltose undergoes alpha-1,6 glucosylation alone to give the oligodextran of DP3 (OD3 panose, alpha-D-Glcp-(1->6)-alpha-D-Glcp-(1->4)-D-Glc), which can be further elongated at either the O6 or the O3 position of the nonreducing unit to give the structures OD4 (alpha-D-Glcp-(1->6)-alpha-D-Glcp-(1->6)-alpha-D-Glcp-(1->4)-D-Glc) and OA4 (alpha-D-Glcp-(1->3)-alpha-D-Glcp-(1->6)-alpha-D-Glcp-(1->4)-D-Glc), respectively. The oligosaccharide OA4 is quick to appear at the beginning of the reaction (1 min) and accumulates at a much higher level than OD4, indicating that panose is preferentially elongated with an alpha-1,3 linkage. A very small peak of OD5 originating from OD4 only appears toward the end of the reaction (after about 30 min) and is not elongated further (no OD6 is found). As soon as the OA4 starts to accumulate, it is efficiently converts to OA5 (alpha-D-Glcp-(1->6)-alpha-D-Glcp-(1->3)-alpha-D-Glcp-(1->6)-alpha-D-Glcp-(1->4)-D-Glc). The OA5 itself can act as an acceptor for the formation of two OA6s (alpha-D-Glcp-(1->6)-alpha-D-Glcp-(1->6)-alpha-D-Glcp-(1->3)-alpha-D-Glcp-(1->6)-alpha-D-Glcp-(1->4)-DGlc and alpha-D-Glcp-(1->3)-alpha-D-Glcp-(1->6)-alpha-D-Glcp-(1->3)-alpha-D-Glcp-(1->6)-alpha-D-Glcp-(1->4)-D-Glc)

alternansucrase acceptor products from maltose do not contain dextran-type linkage sequences. Instead, the product series is comprised of an alternan-type linkage sequence, with some pairs of consecutive alpha-(1,6) linkages in the evennumbered members of the series. The distribution and sequence of linkages is apparently kinetically controlled. Branch formation is not detected below DP 8. Alternansucrase forms alpha-(1,3) linkages only when the acceptor is a-(1,6)-linked, thereby prohibiting the formation of sequences of alpha-(1,3) linkages. Furthermore, the enzyme appears not to make products containing more than two sequential alpha-(1,6) linkages, thereby prohibiting the formation of dextran-like linkage sequences

the alternansucrase-catalyzed acceptor reaction with raffinose gives a gravimetric yield of alternan of 9.5% relative to the weight of sucrose, indicating that 20% of the glucosyl units are incorporated into alternan, and 80% into oligosaccharide acceptor products. The main products are the tetrasaccharides alpha-D-Glcp-(1-3)-alpha-D-Galp-(1-6)-alpha-D-Glcp-(1-2)-beta-D-Fruf and alpha-D-Glcp-(1-4)-alpha-D-Galp-(1-6)-alpha-D-Glcp-(1-2)-beta-D-Fruf in ratios ranging from 4:1 to 9:1, along with lesser amounts of alpha-D-Glcp-(1-6)-alpha-D-Galp-(1-6)-alpha-D-Glcp-(1-2)-beta-D-Fruf. Pentasaccharides, hexasaccharides and higher oligosaccharides are also produced

methyl D-allopyrano-sides are glucosylated primarily at position 6, yielding methyl alpha-D-glucopyranosyl-(1,6)-D-allopyranosides. The latter subsequently gave rise to methyl alpha-D-glucopyranosyl-(1,6)-alpha-D-glucopyranosyl-(1,6)-D-allopyranosides. The methyl alpha-D-hexopyranosides are better acceptors than the corresponding beta-glycosides
