General description
Chemical structure: glucosamine
Application
1-Deoxynojirimycin hydrochloride has been used
- to study its effects on the loss-of-function of N-glycosylation pathway on hair cell regeneration
- as an endoplasmic reticulum (ER) α-glucosidase I and II inhibitor to study its effects on TMED3-cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) interaction
- as an insect trehalase inhibitor in TREH inhibition bioassay
Biochem/physiol Actions
1-Deoxynojirimycin (DNJ) is a naturally occurring alkaloid azasugar or iminosugar. It is observed in mulberry leaves, Commelina communis, and bacterial strains including Bacillus and Streptomyces species. DNJ acts as an α-glucosidase inhibitor and exhibits anti-viral anti-diabetic, anti-inflammatory, anti-obesity, and antioxidant properties.
