A survey of the chemo-enzymatic methodology for preparation nucleosides biological importance is presented. The emphasis made on enzymatic transglycosylation and glycosylation employing nucleoside phosphorylases N-deoxyribosyltransferases. Application whole cells as biocatalysts well purified enzymes from wild-type bacteria recombinant considered. Keywords: N-Deoxyribosyltransferases, deoxyribosyltransferase, Nucleoside Phosphorylases, Escherichia coli, cytidine deaminase (CDase)
