Inhibition of formation of complex oligosaccharides by the glucosidase inhibitor bromoconduritol.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The alpha-glucosidase inhibitor bromoconduritol (6-bromo-3,4,5-trihydroxycyclohex-1-ene) inhibits trimming of the innermost glucose residue from the Glc3Man9GlcNAc2 precursor of high-mannose and complex oligosaccharides. This inhibition occurs both in intact cells and with a microsomal enzyme preparation. The formation of lipid-linked oligosaccharides was increased in glucosidase-inhibited cells. Inhibition of transfer of high-mannose oligosaccharides to protein was not observed. In bromoconduritol-treated virus-infected cells, trimming of mannose can occur despite incomplete removal of glucose. The glucosylated high-mannose oligosaccharides GlcMan9GlcNAc, GlcMan8GlcNAc, and GlcMan7GlcNAc were released from viral glycoproteins after digestion with Pronase and endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase H. The formation of complex oligosaccharides was concomitantly inhibited. The release of infectious fowl plague virus particles (an influenza virus) was inhibited from bromoconduritol-treated infected chicken-embryo cells.

The effects of oligosaccharide trimming inhibitors on glycoprotein expression and infectivity of Junin virus.
The effects of specific inhibitors of glycoprotein trimming reactions on Junin virus (JV) replication were investigated. Bromoconduritol, an inhibitor of glucosidase II, significantly reduced infective virus production (DE50: 1.1 mM) and viral protein expression. Neither 1-deoxynojirimycin, an inhibitor of both glucosidases I and II, nor 1-deoxymannojirimycin and swainsonine, inhibitors of mann...
متن کاملInhibition of myoblast fusion by the glucosidase inhibitor N-methyl-1-deoxynojirimycin, but not by the mannosidase inhibitor 1-deoxymannojirimycin.
The effects of N-linked-oligosaccharide-processing inhibitors on the fusion of rat L6 myoblasts to form myotubes were examined. The glucosidase inhibitor N-methyl-1-deoxynojirimycin (MDJN) greatly inhibited fusion, whereas the mannosidase inhibitor 1-deoxymannojirimycin (ManDJN) had relatively little effect, although both compounds prevented the formation of N-linked complex oligosaccharides. T...
متن کاملInhibition of glycoprotein processing by L-fructose and L-xylulose.
A number of unusual and rare carbohydrates were tested as potential inhibitors of various glycosidases, as well as inhibitors of N-linked oligosaccharide processing. The best inhibitors of several arylglycosidases and of glucosidase I were L-xylulose and L-fructose. Both of these sugars showed some inhibitory activity towards yeast alpha-glucosidase but were inactive against beta-glucosidase an...

In an endeavor to find a novel series of antihyperglycemic agents, new benzimidazole and pyrimidine derivatives were successfully synthesized efficiently in high yield with high purity, starting from amino acids in the presence of phosphorus oxychloride (POCl3). The synthesized compounds were identified by 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, FT-IR spectroscopic techniques and elemental analysis. All products were...
متن کاملRole of protein N-glycosylation in pathogenesis of human immunodeficiency virus type 1.
Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1), the retrovirus responsible for acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), contains two heavily glycosylated envelope proteins, gp120 and gp41, which mediate attachment of virions to glycosylated cell surface receptor molecules (CD4 antigens) and appear to be responsible for syncytium formation and associated cytopathic effects of this virus. A compre...
