Galacto-oligosaccharides (GOS) are widely used as a biocatalyst in the food industry. GOS mixtures mimic the prebiotic effects of the human milk oligosaccharides, by stimulating the number of bifidobacteria and their metabolic activity in the gut, and therefore are added to infant formula.
The Galacto-oligosaccharides (GOS) product synthesized by the enzyme BgaD-D presents a carbohydrate mixture containing a majority of β(1→4) linked galactose on the reducing glucose residue, and a trace amount of β(1→2), β(1→3), β(1→6) linkages. A total of 15 compounds have been identified in the wild type GOS compounds. The products contain both linear and branched structures. Some structures have been further elongated with β(1→4)-linked galactose residues.
