Specific inhibition of human β‐D‐glucuronidase and α‐L‐iduronidase by a trihydroxy pipecolic acid of plant origin

Abstract: The glucuronic acid analogue of 1‐deoxynojirimycin, 2(S)‐carboxy‐3(R), 4(R), 5(S)‐trihydroxypiperidine, recently isolated from seeds of Baphia racemosa, is a novel specific inhibitor of human liver β‐D‐glucuronidase and α‐L‐iduronidase. No other glycosidases are inhibited. The inhibition of β‐D‐glucuronidase is competitive, with a K i of 8 × 10−5 M and is pH‐dependent. This inhibitor may be useful to induce a mucopolysaccharidosis or to investigate the function of microsomal β‐D‐glucoronidase.

“…Strong and selective inhibitors of b-D-glucuronidase and a-L-iduronidase are thus of therapeutic interest. Siastatin B (1) [12] and its analogues 2 -4 [13], the pipecolic acids 5 [14] and 6 [15], and glucarolactam 8 [16] inhibit b-D-glucuronidases. The idarolactone 7 [17] is the only known inhibitor of human a-L-iduronidase.…”

“…M range, because of the formation of a salt bridge between an acid catalytic group and the imino nitrogen [12]. Conduritol epoxides of the correct stereochemistry inactivate the corresponding glycosidases by alkylating the nucleophilic/counterionic carboxylate group which participates in the double displace ment mechanism of 'retaining' glycosidases, and glycosylmethyl p-nitrophenyl triazenes inactivate 'retaining' glycosidases via the cat alyzed generation of glycosylmethyl diazo nium ions [13].…”
