UDP- glucose: glycoprotein glucosyltransferase (UGGT) is a protein that operates as the gatekeeper for the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) quality control mechanism of glycoprotein folding. It is known that vertebrates and Caenorhabditis genomes harbor two uggt gene copies that exhibit differences

It has recently been reported that the glucosidase I inhibitor, N-methyl-1-deoxynojirimycin (MDJN), inhibits myoblast fusion whereas the mannosidase inhibitor, 1-deoxymannojirimycin (ManDJN), has no effect on fusion. We now report that bromoconduritol, which is an active-site-directed covalent inhibitor of glucosidase II

Intestinal brush border enzyme glycoproteins are transported to the microvillar membrane at different rates in the differentiated intestinal cell line Caco-2. This asynchronism is due to at least two rate-limiting events, a pre- and an intra-Golgi step (Stieger B., Matter

Treatment of chick myoblasts with the glucosidase inhibitors bromoconduritol (BCD) or N-methyl-1-deoxynojirimycin (MDJN), but not the mannosidase I inhibitor 1-deoxymannojirimycin (ManDJN), decreased their rate of adhesion to fibronectin and laminin and increased their rate of adhesion to collagen types I

Castanospermine, 1-deoxynojirimycin, and N-methyl-1-deoxynojirimycin, three well-characterized inhibitors of the glucosidases involved in the processing of N-linked oligosaccharides, did not affect the biosynthesis or the secretion of exoglucanases (EC 3.2.1.58) from Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Candida albicans but inhibited the activity itself.
