  • Abstract
    UDP-galactopyranose mutase (UGM) catalyzes the isomerization of UDP-galactopyranose (UDP-Galp) into UDP-galactofuranose (UDP-Galf), an essential step of the mycobacterial cell wall biosynthesis. Acyclic alditol-aminophosphonates in the d-galactose and d-lyxose series were designed as mimics of high energy intermediates of the UGM catalyzed isomerization. Interestingly, the d-lyxitol-aminophosphonate displayed better inhibition properties than the d-galactitol-aminophosphonate.
