Abstract
Ten new 6(3)-modified maltopentaoses and tetraoses were synthesized by enzymatic reactions utilizing cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase (EC 2.4.1.19) and subsequent human salivary alpha-amylase (HSA) (EC 3.2.1.1). Among these compounds, alpha-D-glucopyranosyl-(1-->4)- alpha-D-glucopyranosyl-(1-->4)-(6-deoxy-alpha-D-glucopyranosyl)-(1-->4)- alpha-D-glucopyranosyl-(1-->4)-D-glucopyranose (11) and alpha-D-glucopyranosyl-(1-->4)-(6-deoxy-alpha-D-glucopyranosyl)-(1-->4)- alpha-D-glucopyranosyl-(1-->4)-D-glucopyranose (12) showed strong inhibitory activities for human pancreatic alpha-amylase (HPA) and HSA. The IC50 of 6(3)-deoxymaltopentaose 11 (8.0 x 10(-5) M for HPA, 1.0 x 10(-4) M for HSA) and 6(3)-deoxymaltotetraose 12 (2.0 x 10(-3) M for HPA, 2.0 x 10(-3) M for HSA) were lower than that of 6(3)-deoxymaltotriose [(6-deoxy-alpha-D-glucopyranosyl)-(1-->4)-alpha-D- glucopyranosyl-(1-->4)-D-glucopyranose 13; 2.0 x 10(-3) M for HPA, 4.2 x 10(-2) M for HSA].
