A small library of 22 N-substituted galactonoamidines was synthesized, and their structure-activity relationship for inhibition of the hydrolytic activity of beta-galactosidase (Aspergillus oryzae) was evaluated. A fast screening assay in 96-well plate format was used to follow the enzymatic hydrolysis of 2-chloro-4-nitrophenyl-beta-d-galactopyranoside using UV-vis spectroscopy. The aglycon moiety of all compounds was found to have a profound effect on their inhibitory ability. In general, galactonoamidines derived from cyclic aliphatic and linear amines show higher inhibition activity than those derived from benzylamines. Hydrophobic interactions of the methyl group rather than pi-pi stacking interactions of the aromatic ring in p-methylbenzyl-d-galactonoamidine were identified to cause its transition-state-like character and the remarkably high inhibitory ability (K-i = 8 nM). A flexible 3-carbon methylene spacer between the exo N atom of the sugar moiety and a phenyl group furthermore increased the observed apparent inhibition drastically

A series of N-benzylgalactonoamidines was synthesized to probe their inhibitory ability during the hydrolysis of o-nitrophenyl-beta-D-galactopyranoside by beta-galactosidase (Aspergillus oryzae). All compounds are characterized as potent competitive inhibitors with inhibition constants (K-i) in the low nanomolar range (12-48 nM). The structure of the inhibitors mimics the bond-lengthening during the hydrolysis and the aromatic aglycon of the substrate. The electronic nature of the substituent in p-position of the aglycon influences the overall inhibitory ability most when compared to the unsubstituted parent compound. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd.
