title: Competitive inhibitors of yeast phosphoglucose isomerase: synthesis and evaluation of new types of phosphorylated sugars from the synthon D-arabinolactone-5-phosphate.
abstract: Designed as competitive inhibitors of the isomerization reaction catalyzed by the potential chemotherapeutic target phosphoglucose isomerases (PGI), D-arabinonamide-5-phosphate and D-arabinohydrazine-5-phosphate were synthesized and fully characterized. These new types of phosphorylated sugar derivatives were easily and efficiently obtained in a one-step procedure from the promising synthon D-arabinono-1,4-lactone 5-phosphate. These two compounds proved to be new good competitive inhibitors of yeast PGI with the substrate D-fructose-6-phosphate, though not as strong as D-arabinohydroxamic acid-5-phosphate. Overall, our results are in accord with the postulated 1,2-cis-enediolate species as a probable high-energy intermediate of the PGI-catalyzed reaction.
