Emerging gut microbial glycoside hydrolase inhibitors. [PDF]
Glycoside hydrolase inhibitors are emerging as valuable tools to study gut microbial enzymes that modulate host physiology and disease by degrading dietary, drug-related, and host-derived glycans.

α-Glucosidase-driven metabolism as a potential therapeutic vulnerability in Candida albicans [PDF]
Candida albicans remains a leading etiological agent of both mucosal and invasive fungal infections. The increasing prevalence of antifungal resistance and limited therapeutic options pose a significant clinical challenge and highlight the need for novel

Emergence of a subfamily of xylanase inhibitors within glycoside hydrolase family 18 [PDF]
The xylanase inhibitor protein I (XIP‐I), recently identified in wheat, inhibits xylanases belonging to glycoside hydrolase families 10 (GH10) and 11 (GH11). Sequence and structural similarities indicate that XIP‐I is related to chitinases of family GH18, despite its lack of enzymatic activity.

Azasugars are known as potent inhibitors of glycoside hydrolases. In this study, we examined the inhibition of Cellvibrio gilvus cellobiose phosphorylase (CBP) by four azasugars (isofagomine, 1-deoxynojirimycin, castanospermine and calystegine B2) and a non-azasugar (glucono-1,5-lactone).

Abstract Glycoside hydrolase family 65 (GH65) includes glycoside hydrolases active on various α-glucosides. We previously demonstrated that the GH65 enzyme from Flavobacterium johnsoniae (FjGH65A) is a kojibiose hydrolase and determined its 3-dimensional structure. In this study, the effects of glucosidase inhibitors on FjGH65A and their

Discovery of Kasugamycin as a Potent Inhibitor of Glycoside Hydrolase Family 18 Chitinases [PDF]
Kasugamycin, a well-known aminoglycoside antibiotic, has been used widely in agriculture and medicine to combat microbial pathogens by binding the ribosome to inhibit translation. Here, kasugamycin was discovered to be a competitive inhibitor of glycoside hydrolase family 18 (GH18) chitinases from three different organisms (bacterium, insect and human).

Allylic Carbocyclic Inhibitors Covalently Bind Glycoside Hydrolases
Allylic cyclitols were investigated as covalent inhibitors of glycoside hydrolases by chemical, enzymatic, proteomic, and computational methods. This approach was inspired by the C$_{7}$ cyclitol natural product streptol glucoside, which features a potential carbohydrate leaving group in the 4-position (carbohydrate numbering). To test this hypothesis,

Sugar-rich food sources are essential for sandflies to meet their energy demands, achieving more prolonged survival. The digestion of carbohydrates from food is mainly realized by glycoside hydrolases (GH). To identify genes coding for α-glycosidases and
