Mechanism-based inhibitors as in vitro and in vivo probes of glycosidase structure and mechanism

Two new classes of specific, mechanism-based glycosidase inactivators were developed: 2,2-dihalo glycosyl chlorides and 5-fluoro glycosyl fluorides. Both classes were effective against x-glucosidases, which had been hitherto resistant to similar inactivation strategies. Incubation of yeast -gluco...
