title: Spacer-modified trisaccharide glycosides that mimic the biantennary Asn-linked oligosaccharide acceptor of (1----4)-beta-D-galactosyltransferase and can be used as competitive inhibitors and for irreversible deactivation.
abstract: The biantennary spacer-modified trisaccharide glycoside methyl 3,6-di-O-(2-acetamido-2-deoxy-beta-D-glucopyranosyloxyethyl)-alpha -D- mannopyranoside (5) was synthesised and used together with several 2-acylamino-2-deoxy-D-glucose derivatives in competition experiments with beta-D-galactosyltransferase. Compound 5 was an acceptor substrate (KM 0.18 mM) comparable to the biantennary core heptasaccharide of glycoproteins (KM 0.13 mM). Replacing the N-acetyl group by other N-acyl groups did not alter the kinetic parameters significantly. When the N-acyl group was iodoacetyl, the compound was an irreversible inhibitor.
