galactofuranosyltransferases, GlfT1 and GlfT2, which are involved in the biosynthesis of mycobacterial galactan. In this paper, a group of UDP-Galf mimics were synthesized via reductive amination of a bicyclo[3.1.0]hexane-based amine by reacting with aromatic, linear, or uridine-containing aldehydes. These compounds were evaluated against GlfT2 using a coupled spectrophotometric assay, and were shown to be
UDP-呋喃半乳糖 (UDP-Galf) 是参与分枝杆菌半乳聚糖生物合成的双功能呋喃半乳糖转移酶 GlfT1 和 GlfT2 的供体底物。在本文中,一组 UDP-Galf 模拟物是通过双环 [3.1.0] 己烷基胺与芳族、线性或含尿苷醛反应的还原胺化合成的。使用耦合分光光度测定法针对 GlfT2 评估了这些化合物,结果表明它们是该酶的弱抑制剂。
