Carbohydrate mimetics-based glycosyltransferase inhibitors
Abstract
The search for carbohydrate mimetics-based glycosyltransferase inhibitors is a dynamic field that emerged 10 years ago. This review presents a description of the different types of glycosyltransferase inhibitors containing a carbohydrate mimetic (primarily an iminosugar, a carbasugar or a C-glycoside) and data on their biological activity whenever such data are available. The purpose of this account is to foster a synergy between the two expanding research areas of glycomimetics and glycosyltransferases.
