We demonstrate that the sugar ring conformation of nucleosides plays a critical role during Candida antarctica lipase B (CAL-B) catalyzed acylation. Specifically, the North (N), but not the South (S) nucleoside sugar ring conformation is preferred for efficient binding at the catalytic site. In this study, we used nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy experiments to establish the sugar ring conformation of nucleosides and performed molecular modeling studies to support the observations. The ribo- and 2'-substituted (OMe, F) nucleosides displaying the N-conformation undergo rapid and facile acylation compared to the 2'-deoxynucleosides with the S-conformation. This study improves our understanding of the critical role that sugar conformation plays in enzymesubstrate recognition during biotransformations using CAL-B. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first experimental report offering a rationale for the observed selectivity during acylation of nucleosides containing the N-sugar conformation.
