The selective C-terminal deprotection of O-glycopeptide (methoxyethoxy)ethyl esters is achieved under mild conditions (pH 6.6, 37 degrees C) by enzymatic hydrolysis using papain or lipase M from Mucor javanicus to give building blocks useful for chain-extending glycopeptide synthesis. On the other hand, the selective removal of acetyl protecting groups from the saccharide portion of glycopeptides is accomplished by alternative enzymatic hydrolysis with lipase WG from wheat germ to furnish model substrates for enzymatic glycosyl transfer reactions in order to extend the carbohydrate side chain of these conjugates.
