CONDURITOL B EPOXIDE Structural

What is CONDURITOL B EPOXIDE?

Description

Conduritol B epoxide (6090-95-5) is a β-Glycosidase inhibitor.1,2 May be used for generation of the “Gaucher mouse”3 and the in vitro model of the Gaucher cell4.

Chemical properties

White Crystalline Solid

The Uses of CONDURITOL B EPOXIDE

Conduritol B Epoxide acts on b-glucosidases from widely differing sources to show a loss of enzymic activity: from various Aspergillus species, yeast, snail, sweet almonds, and mammals. The other enzymes that have been found to be covalently inhibited are a- glucosidase from yeast and the sucrase-isomaltase complex from rabbit small intestine.

The Uses of CONDURITOL B EPOXIDE

inhibitor of glucosidases

What are the applications of Application

Conduritol B Epoxide (CBE) is a specific covalent β-glycosidase enzyme inhibitor that results in the accumulation of glucocerebroside.

Definition

ChEBI: 1-D-1,2-anhydro-myo-inositol is a conduritol epoxide resulting from the formal epoxidation of the double bond of (+)-conduritol B. It has a role as an EC 3.2.1.48 (sucrose alpha-glucosidase) inhibitor and an EC 3.2.1.10 (oligo-1,6-glucosidase) inhibitor. It is functionally related to a (+)-conduritol B. It is an enantiomer of a 1-L-1,2-anhydro-myo-inositol.

General Description

Conduritol B epoxide?(CBE) is a mix of 1-L-1,2-anhydro-myo-inositol and 1-D-1,2-anhydro-myo-inositol.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Conduritol B epoxide?(CBE)?is capable of inactivating sucrase-isomaltase irreversibly. It can be used to produce cell and animal models to study on Gaucher disease (GD) and Parkinson′s disease (PD).

storage

Store at -20°C
