A method is described for identifying a compound that modulates the ability of a glycosyltransferase to bind a substrate comprising combining a glycosyltransferase, a labeled substrate, and a compound, in a reaction vessel, under conditions known to be suitable for the glycosyltransferase to bind the labeled substrate, measuring an amount of labeled substrate bound to the glycosyltransferase, and comparing the amount to a standardized amount to identify a relative increase or decrease in substrate bound glycosyltransferase, thereby identifying a compound that modulates the ability of the glycosyltransferase to bind the substrate. A composition comprising an effective amount of a compound of Formula I (the substituents of which are described herein), or a stereoisomer, or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, that inhibits the ability of a glycosyltransferase to bind a substrate, in a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier is provided
