Abstract

A library of GlcNAc 6- or 1-phosphate analogues was designed, and each compound was evaluated computationally through docking studies for its binding affinity to AGM1/PGM3. The compounds with the highest binding affinity, as ranked through a docking score, were synthesised and screened for their ability to inhibit the production of UDP-GlcNAc. A glycofused oxazoline analogue showed good inhibition, and gave significant results in vitro.
