Abstract
A stereoselective synthesis of Galβ1→3 (Fucα1→4) GlcNAcβ-Or (Lewis a) structures containing an anomeric p-nitrophenyl or benzyl group was accomplished through the use of methyl 3,4-O-isopropylidene-2-O-(4-methoxybenzyl)-1-thio-β-L-fucopyranosid e. The compounds were used as acceptors to show in human ovarian tumors and a colon carcinoma cell line (Colo 205), the presence of a new type of α1,2-L-fucosyltransferase which converts the blood group determinant Lewisa to Lewisb.
