Abstract:
The invention relates to a mixture of human milk oligosaccharides that consists essentially of: a) a component A which is 3-FL or DFL, a component B which is LNT, LNnT, LNFP-I or 2′-FL, a component C, which is LNFP-II when component B is LNT, or LNFP-III when component B is LNnT, or LNDFH-I when component B is LNFP-I, or DFL when component B is 2′-FL, and a component D, which is lactose when component A is 3-FL, or 2′-FL when component A is DFL, with the proviso that if component B is 2′-FL, then component A is 3-FL; or consists essentially of: b) 3-FL, a component E which is LNT, LNnT or LNFP-I, and a component F, which is LNFP-II when component E is LNT, or LNFP-III when component E is LNnT, or LNDFH-I when component E is LNFP-I, and to processes for producing them and their uses.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for producing a glycoconjugate comprising an oligosaccharide part covalently linked to a non-sugar moiety selected from the group consisting of amino acids, peptides, proteins, lipids, longer alkyl groups, polyethylene glycols, α,β-unsaturated amido group and polyvinyl alcohols, using a genetically modified cell.
