CD BioGlyco provides professional GlycoCLICK™-based enzyme inhibitor development service. We synthesize enzyme inhibitors with specific glycosyl structures through various types of click chemical reactions to inhibit enzyme activity.
We design and synthesize substrates for click chemistry reactions (for example, azide- or alkyne-modified molecules) that will serve as starting points for the synthesis of enzyme inhibitors with specific glycosyl modifications.
We prepare target enzymes for subsequent inhibitor screening experiments, including expression, purification, and activity assay of target enzymes to ensure they are in the appropriate functional state.
The application of click chemistry technology in the development of enzyme inhibitors is an efficient and flexible method to generate diverse compound libraries. We use click chemistry to link designed substrates to small molecules with specific glycosyl modifications that are known inhibitors or compounds with inhibitory potential. A series of candidate inhibitors with different glycosyl modifications will be rapidly and efficiently synthesized via click chemistry reactions.
We perform high-throughput screening of a synthetic inhibitor library to evaluate its inhibitory activity against target enzymes, which is achieved by various in vitro enzyme activity assays (for example, enzyme inhibition assay, and enzyme kinetic analysis). We will obtain compounds with significant inhibitory activity by screening experiments. Based on this screening model, CD BioGlyco provides various types of enzyme inhibitor development services.

Published: 2011
Results: The authors efficiently synthesized novel glycohybrid triazoles with two or more sugar units via copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition reaction (CuAAC), and evaluated the enzyme inhibitory activity of the prepared glycohybrids in vitro. The results indicated that the synthesized compounds showed moderate to significant inhibitory effects on three enzymes: α-glucosidase, glucose-6-phosphatase, and glycogen phosphorylase.
