Design, synthesis and In Vitro evaluation on glucosamine-6P synthase of aromatic analogs of 2-Aminohexitols-6P
The aminosugars are very important structural components of bacterial and fungi cell walls. Glucosamine-6-phosphate synthase (GlmS), which catalyses the first step of the aminosugar biosynthetic pathway i.e. the formation of D-glucosamine-6-phosphate from D-fructose-6-phosphate, is therefore an interesting target in the fight against microorganisms. In this work is described the synthesis of aromatic analogs of 2-amino-2-deoxy-D-glucitol-6-phosphate (ADGP) and its epimer 2-amino-2-deoxy-D-manitol-6-phosphate (ADMP), two important inhibitors of GlmS. The aromatic analogs displayed modest inhibitory activity against GlmS, with IC50 in the mmol L-1 range.
