Product Description
Selective glycosidase inhibitor sharing such activity with other hydroxylated nitrogen containing bicyclic compounds like swainsonine (Prod. No. ALX-350-077), castanospermine (Prod. No. ALX-270-160), monocyclic deoxynojirimycin (Prod. No. ALX-580-003) or fagomine. Most abundant form is calystegine B2 occurring in almost all plants displaying calystegines. Inhibitory potency of calystegine B2 is comparable to other alkaloidal glycosidase inhibitors showing Ki values below 1µM.
