Description

Application

Swainsonine is a potent inhibitor of various α-mannosidases, especially of α-mannosidase II. It inhibits glycoprotein processing and also acts as immune modulator.

Swainsonine is an indolizidine alkaloid from the plant Metarrhizium anisopliae that is used as a potent α-mannosidase inhibitor[1]. Product S8195 has been used in chemical inhibition assays of CHO Lec2 cells to inhibit glycosylation [2].

Biochem/physiol Actions

Swainsonine is a potent α-mannosidase inhibitor. It also has antimetastatic, antiproliferative, and immunomodulatory activity [1]. It also inhibits glycoprotein processing.
