Insect chitinolytic β-N-acetylhexosaminidase OfHex1, from the agricultural pest Ostrinia furnacalis (Guenée), is considered as a potential target for green pesticide design. In this study, rational molecular design and optimization led to the synthesis of compounds 15r (Ki = 5.3 μM) and 15y (Ki = 2.7 μM) that had superior activity against OfHex1 than previously reported lead compounds. Both compounds 15r and 15y had high selectivity toward OfHex1 over human β-N-acetylhexosaminidase B (HsHexB) and human O-GlcNAcase (hOGA). In addition, to investigate the basis for the potency of glycosylated naphthalimides against OfHex1, molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulations were performed to study possible binding modes. Furthermore, the in vivo biological activity of target compounds with efficient OfHex1 inhibitory potency was assayed against Myzus persicae, Plutella xylostella, and O. furnacalis. This present work indicates that glycosylated naphthalimides can be further developed as potential pest control and management agents targeting OfHex1.

A series of novel genipin glycoside derivatives incorporating 11 glycosidic moieties at either the 1 or 10 position of genipin were designed and synthesized. These compounds exhibited moderate to excellent inhibitory activities against tobacco mosaic virus. Especially, the in vitro and in vivo activities of compounds 6e, 7c, 7d, 7f, 7h, and 7i were comparable to that of ribavirin. In particular, compound 7c, the mannosyl derivative of genipin at the 10 position, showed the best activity. The series of genipin glycosyl derivatives also displayed fungicidal activities against 14 kinds of phytopathogenic fungi, especially for Rhizoctonia cerealis and Sclerotinia sclerotiorum. Moreover, compound 6h exhibited good insecticidal activity against diamondback moth; compounds 7b, 7c, and 7g exhibited moderate insecticidal activity against three kinds of Lepidoptera pests (oriental armyworm, cotton bollworm, and corn borer); and compound 7e showed excellent larvacidal activities against mosquito.

Human O-GlcNAcase plays an important role in regulating the post-translational modification of serine and threonine residues with β-O-linked N-acetylglucosamine monosaccharide unit (O-GlcNAc). The mechanism of O-GlcNAcase involves nucleophilic participation of the 2-acetamido group of the substrate to displace a glycosidically linked leaving group. The tolerance of this enzyme for variation in substrate structure has enabled us to characterize O-GlcNAcase transition states using several series of substrates to generate multiple simultaneous free-energy relationships. Patterns revealing changes in mechanism, transition state, and rate-determining step upon concomitant variation of both nucleophilic strength and leaving group abilities are observed. The observed changes in mechanism reflect the roles played by the enzymic general acid and the catalytic nucleophile. Significantly, these results illustrate how the enzyme synergistically harnesses both modes of catalysis; a feature that eludes many small molecule models of catalysis. These studies also suggest the kinetic significance of an oxocarbenium ion intermediate in the O-GlcNAcase-catalyzed hydrolysis of glucosaminides, probing the limits of what may be learned using nonatomistic investigations of enzymic transition-state structure and offering general insights into how the superfamily of retaining glycoside hydrolases act as efficient catalysts.
