Polysaccharides and their related compounds are attracting much
attention due to their potential as new functional materials in
many research fields such as medicine, pharmaceutics, foods, and
cosmetics. Therefore, precision synthesis of new polysaccharides
with well-defined structure is increasingly important. For this
purpose, enzymatic method is a very powerful tool because the
reaction proceeds in a manner that is highly stereo- and
region-controlled. This book focuses on advances in the practical
synthesis of polysaccharides by phosphorylase-catalyzed
chain-elongation from the perspective of polysaccharide
engineering.
