Abstract
A cellobio-derived isofagomine glycosidase inhibitor (K-i similar to 400 nM) displays an unusual distorted B-2,B-5 (boat) conformation upon binding to cellobiohydrolase Cel6A from Humicola insolens, highlighting the different conformational itineraries used by various glycosidases, with consequences for the design of therapeutic agents.
