inhibition studies of a model enzyme, class II ozmannosida se from Aspergillus fischeri in
presence of polyhydroxy piperidine de rived glycosida se inhibitors, metal ions and amino
acid specific reagents were carried out to reveal the sensitivity of the enzyme. Three of the
derivatives (Compound 20, 32 and 39) showed competitive inhibition (K,= 45, 48 and 235
uM) and the binding of the inhibitors to the enzyme was entropically driven. Among the metal …
