New Glucocerebrosidase Inhibitors by Exploration of Chemical Diversity of <i>N</i>-Substituted Aminocyclitols Using Click Chemistry and in Situ Screening
the reaction can be carried out in an aqueous system, the resulting library members can be screened in situ with minimal manipulation. From the preliminary GCase inhibition data, the most potent library members have been individually resynthesized for further biological screening and complete characterization. Some of the library members have shown biochemical data (IC50, Ki, and stabilization ratio)

Small-Scale One-Pot Reductive Alkylation of Unprotected Aminocyclitols with Supported Reagents
A protocol for the reductive alkylation of unprotected aminocyclitols with supported reagents and scavengers is described. The method is operatively simple and provides the corresponding secondary amines in high yields and purities.
The doubly functional aminotransferase BtrS in the 2-deoxystreptamine (DOS) biosynthesis, in which two transaminations are involved, was characterized by a genetic as well as a chemical approach with the heterologously expressed enzyme. The gene disruption study clearly showed that BtrS is involved, in addition to the previously confirmed first transamination, in the second transamination as well. This dual function of BtrS for the DOS biosynthesis was further confirmed by the structural determination of the reverse reaction product from DOS. Enantiospecific formation of the reverse reaction product from DOS clearly showed that BtrS distinguishes the enantiotopic amino groups of DOS, but in contrast, both enantiomers of 2-deoxy-scyllo-inosose (DOI) were efficiently accepted by BtrS to give a racemic product. This unique stereochemical recognition of DOI chirality and DOS prochirality by BtrS is mechanistically explained by a specific hydrogen-bond donating force in the enzyme active site as a particular feature of this doubly functional enzyme.

2-Deoxystreptamine (DOS)-containing aminoglycoside-aminocyclitol (AmAc) antibiotics represent the majority of clinically important AmAcs. Biosynthetic investigations of formation of DOS in actinomycetes are limited to the characterization of 2-deoxy-scyllo-inosose synthase, the first step enzyme of the DOS biosynthetic pathway. A gene encoding L-glutamine:2-deoxy-scyllo-mosose aminotransferase (tbmB) from the tobramycin producer Streptomyces tenebrarius was expressed heterologously in Escherichia coli. The conversions of 2-deoxy-scyllo-inosose to 2-deoxy-scyllo-inosamine and scyllo-inosose to scyllo-inosamine with the activity of TbmB were determined in vitro. The results indicate that tbmB catalyzes the second step of the DOS biosynthetic pathway during the biosynthesis of 2-deoxystreptamine, a subunit of tobramycin, in S. tenebrarius.
