1-脱氧麦诺吉利霉素盐酸盐是α（1→2）-甘露糖苷酶的选择性抑制剂。甘露糖苷酶被裂解成两个亚型：I和II，其中显示多种表达模式。甘露糖苷酶I水解低聚甘露糖寡糖Man9（GlcNAc）2的（1,2） - 连接的α-D-甘露糖残基和甘露糖苷酶II水解（1,3） - 和（1,6） - 连接的Man5(GlcNAc)3的α-D-甘露糖残基。甘露糖苷酶I和甘露糖苷酶II都需要二价阳离子作辅助因子。1-脱氧麦诺吉利霉素（DMM）盐酸盐是N-连接的糖基化的抑制剂并具有抗病毒活性。脱氧麦诺吉利霉素的衍生物可能具有抗HIV活性。它是用于在高尔基体介导的糖蛋白加工研究。 1-Deoxymannojirimycin hydrochloride is a selective inhibitor of α(1→2)-mannosidases. Mannosidases are broken into two subtypes: I and II, which display a wide expression pattern. Mannosidase I hydrolyzes (1,2)-linked α-D-mannose residues in the oligo-mannose oligosaccharide Man9(GlcNAc)2 and mannosidase II hydrolyzes (1,3)- and (1,6)-linked α-D-mannose residues in Man5(GlcNAc)3. Both mannosidase I and mannosidase II of require a divalent cation cofactor. 1-Deoxymannojirimycin (DMM) hydrochloride is an inhibitor of N-linked glycosylationan and has antiviral activity. Derivatives of deoxymannojirimycin may have anti-HIV activity.
