Inhibition of the exo-beta-D-glucosaminidase CsxA by a glucosamine-configured castanospermine and an amino-australine analogue.
The synthesis of amino-derivatives of castanospermine and australine and their characterisation as inhibitors of the exo-beta-D-glucosaminidase CsxA through enzyme kinetics and X-ray structural analysis is described.
