Inhibitor of O-GlcNAcase

Inhibitor of lysosomal acid β-glucosidase (GlcCerase/glucocerebrosidase) with IC50 in nanomolar range for wildtype and mutant enzyme. It behaves as pharmacological chaperon by binding to instable GlcCerase active site at neutral pH values and facilitating the protein folding. In acidic lysosomes, isofagomine gets release from the enzyme active site. This results in increased levels of functional glucocerebrosidase and brings therapeutic benefits to patients with Gaucher disease.

Phenyl 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-β-D-thioglucopyranoside (PTATG) is a synthetic sugar that is used as a building block in the synthesis of complex carbohydrates. It can be fluorinated to form phenyl 2,3,4,6-tetrafluoro-β-D-thioglucopyranoside (PTFFTG). PTATG and PTFFTG are potential anticancer drugs.

6-O-Methyl-D-glucose is a non-carbohydrate that can be found in Mycobacterium tuberculosis. It is an electron microscopic study of proton and fatty acid molecules, which has shown that the cell membrane of mycobacterial cells are susceptible to inhibition by fatty acids. 6-O-Methyl-D-glucose is a nucleophilic attack on cellular fatty acids, which may inhibit their synthesis and lead to cell death. 6-O-Methyl-D-glucose has been shown to be synthesized from glucose and glycosylated with hydroxyl groups during biosynthesis. This chemical is also used in the synthesis of oligosaccharides because it has a molecular weight of 180, making it more easily scalable than other carbohydrates.

The 4-methoxyphenyl 2,3,6-tri-O-benzoyl-b-D-galactopyranoside (4MP) is a coagulation factor that inhibits the activity of coagulation factors Xa and IIa. The compound has been shown to be reactive with the detection methods used for other coagulation factors. The sensitivity of 4MP to detection was assessed using a battery of detection methods. 4MP was found to be more reactive than other compounds studied with regard to the use of an immunoassay for detection. This compound has hepatotoxic effects and can cause cell death in vitro. Cell culture studies show that 4MP causes membrane permeabilization and cellular uptake by bacteria.

D-Altro-Amide is a custom synthesis that has been modified by fluorination, methylation, and monosaccharide. The synthesis of D-Altro-Amide is done through modification, click modification, and oligosaccharides. It's CAS number is 69092-57-5. D-Altro-Amide is a polysaccharide made from glycosylation and sugar. Carbohydrates are complex carbohydrates with many saccharides connected together in an ordered manner.

Streptamine derivative; antibiotic agent

Inhibitor of hexokinase isozymes and cellular glycosylation
