Enzymatic synthesis of l-fucose from l-fuculose using a fucose isomerase from Raoultella sp. and the biochemical and structural analyses of the enzyme
Abstract Background l-Fucose is a rare sugar with potential uses in the pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and food industries. The enzymatic approach using l-fucose isomerase, which interconverts l-fucose and l-fuculose, can be an efficient way of producing l-fucose for industrial applications. Here, we per...
