.beta.-Galactosidase obtained from A. oryzae had strong transglycosylation activity. The glycosylation of water-soluble and insoluble alcohols was successfully performed under mild conditions (pH 5 at 4-37.degree. C) with this enzyme. The enzyme was also applied to the one-step synthesis of several cardiac glycosides that are difficult to obtain by ordinary chemical methods.
