NAG-thiazoline is a potent inhibitor of the Vibrio campbellii GH20 β-N-Acetylglucosaminidase.
Vibrio spp. play a vital role in the recycling of chitin in oceans, but several Vibrio strains are highly infectious to aquatic animals and humans. These bacteria require chitin for growth; thus, potent inhibitors of chitin-degrading enzymes could serve as candidate drugs against Vibrio infections. This study examined NAG-thiazoline (NGT)-mediated inhibition of a recombinantly expressed GH20 β-N-acetylglucosaminidase, namely VhGlcNAcase from Vibrio campbellii (formerly V. harveyi) ATCC BAA-1116. NGT strongly inhibited VhGlcNAcase with an IC Topics: Acetylglucosamine; Acetylglucosaminidase; Animals; Bacterial Infections; Bacterial Proteins; Catalytic Domain; Crystallography, X-Ray; Humans; Inhibitory Concentration 50; Kinetics; Models, Molecular; Oligosaccharides; Protein Domains; Substrate Specificity; Thermodynamics; Thiazoles; Vibrio | 2020 |
