α-D-Galactopyranosides were synthesized and their inhibitory activities toward the Debaryomyces hansenii UFV-1 extracellular and intracellular α-galactosidases were evaluated. Methyl α-D-galactopyranoside was the most potent inhibitor compared to the others tested, with K(i)(') values of 0.82 and 1.12 mmolL(-1), for extracellular

We present an exploration of proton transfer dynamics in a monosaccharide, based upon ab initio molecular dynamic (AIMD) simulations, conducted "on-the-fly", in β-d-galactose-H(+) (βGal-H(+)) and its singly hydrated complex, βGal-H(+)-H2O. Prior structural calculations identify O6 as the preferred protonation site

A protocol based on saturation transfer difference (STD) NMR spectra was developed to characterize the binding interactions at an atom level, termed group epitope mapping (GEM). As an example we chose the well-studied system of galactose binding to the 120-kDa

Acid hydrolysis of cell wall-rich material from young leaves of the lycophyte Selaginella apoda (L.) Spring yielded substantial amounts of 3-O-methyl-D-galactose (1) in addition to the usual major monosaccharides (glucose, galactose, arabinose, xylose and galacturonic acid). The yield of 1
