Further modification with aromatic substituents gave access to lipophilic derivatives. Kinetic studies revealed that all compounds exhibited better inhibitory properties against beta-xylosidase from Thermoanaerobacterium sacharolyticum than the parent iminosugar.}, issn = {0004-9425}, doi = {10.1071/CH09040}, author = {Steiner, Andreas J. and Stuetz, Arnold E. and Tarling, Chris A. and Withers, Stephen G. and Wrodnigg, Tanja M.} }
