Abstract:N-p-Vinylbenzyl-6-d-glucaramic acid (VB-6-d-GlcaH, 1) and its corresponding polymer, P(VB-6-d-GlcaH-co-AAm) (2), were found to inhibit β-glucuronidase activity more efficiently than d-glucaro-6,3-lactone, while the inhibition ability of N-butyl-6-d-glucaramic acid (Butyl-6-d-GlcaH, 3) on the enzyme activity was seriously lower than that of the lactone. The π–π stacking interaction between the styryl part of 1 and Trp587 of β-glucuronidase was confirmed by the blue shift detected on fluorescence spectrophotomet… Show more
