Revealing the mechanism for covalent inhibition of glycoside hydrolases by carbasugars at an atomic level

Mechanism-based inhibitors of glycoside hydrolases are useful probes for basic research and represent potential drug candidates. Here, the authors present a series of mechanism-based covalent α-galactosidase inhibitors and elucidate the kinetic and structural basis of their inhibitory activity.
