A microtiter plate assay for UDP-galactopyranose mutase, an essential cell wall biosynthetic enzyme of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, was developed. The assay is based on the release of tritiated formaldehyde from UDP-galactofuranose but not UDP-galactopyranose by periodate and was used to identify a uridine-based enzyme inhibitor from a chemical library.
开发了一种用于检测结核分枝杆菌细胞壁生物合成必需酶——UDP-吡喃半乳糖变位酶的微量滴定板检测方法。该检测方法基于高碘酸盐从UDP-呋喃半乳糖而非UDP-吡喃半乳糖中释放出氚标记甲醛的原理,并用于从化学文库中鉴定一种基于尿苷的酶抑制剂。
