Mixed-Linkage Cellooligosaccharides: A New Class of Glycoside Hydrolase Inhibitors

ChemBioChem, 2001
A new class of inhibitors for beta-D-glycoside hydrolases, in which a single alpha-(1-->4)-glycosidic bond is incorporated into an otherwise all-beta-(1-->4)-linked oligosaccharide, is described. Such mixed beta/alpha-linkage cellooligosaccharides are not transition-state mimics, but instead are capable of utilising binding energy from numerous ...

Strategies for developing carbohydrates as glycoside hydrolase inhibitors

2020
The cleavage of the glycosidic bond in glycoconjugates is an important activity in biological systems. The enzymes catalyzing this activity are termed as “glycoside hydrolases” (GH). About 1% of the genome in organisms are encoded by GHs. Researchers have put in tremendous amount of effort in understanding the mechanism of GHs and the effect of their ...

The Synthesis of a New Class of Potential Inhibitors for Glycoside Hydrolases†

Journal of Carbohydrate Chemistry, 2005
Some attempts toward the synthesis of novel inhibitors of glycosyl transferases are described. More successfully, the synthesis of an activated cyclopropacyclohexene and an amide and an amine of a cyclopropa‐fused pyranose are described. None of these three novel compounds proved to be a significant inhibitor of a retaining α‐glucosidase from barley. †

Mechanism‐Based Inhibitors to Probe Transitional States of Glycoside Hydrolases

2006
Recent structural and kinetic studies indicate that glycosidases (glycoside hydrolases) change the peripheral structure of their catalytic sites dynamically to trim glycan structures. Inhibitors that label specific amino acid residues in the active site of these enzymes based on its mechanism of action are powerful tools to probe such a hidden ...

d-Glucosylated Derivatives of Isofagomine and Noeuromycin and Their Potential as Inhibitors of ß-Glycoside Hydrolases

Australian Journal of Chemistry, 2007
While isofagomine and noeuromycin have previously been demonstrated to be effective inhibitors of a range of exo-acting glycosidases, they are usually only very weak inhibitors of endo-glycosidases. However, the disaccharide-like 3- and 4-O-ß-d-glucopyranosylisofagomines have proven to be strong inhibitors of these endo-acting enzymes that utilize ...

The Synthesis of Some Epoxyalkyl b- C -Glycosides as Potential Inhibitors of b-Glucan Hydrolases

Australian Journal of Chemistry, 1997
The treatment of tetra-O-benzyl-D-glucono-1,5-lactone with various alkenylmagnesium halides gave the intermediate lactols which, upon reduction (Et3SiH/BF3) and protecting group manipulation, yielded alkenyl tetra-O-acetyl-β-D-C-glucopyranosides in good yield.

New Class of Glycoside Hydrolase Mechanism-Based Covalent Inhibitors: Glycosylation Transition State Conformations

Journal of the American Chemical Society, 2017
The design of covalent inhibitors in glycoscience research is important for the development of chemical biology probes. Here we report the synthesis of a new carbocyclic mechanism-based covalent inhibitor of an α-glucosidase. The enzyme efficiently catalyzes its alkylation via either an allylic cation or a cationic transition state.
