Synthesis of UDP-glucose derivatives modified at the 3-OH as potential chain terminators of beta-glucan biosynthesis.

A series of UDP-D-glucose derivatives and precursors that have been modified at C-3 were synthesised from D-glucose as potential chain terminators of beta-glucan biosynthesis. None of the UDP-derivatives or the precursors tested displayed significant anti-fungal activity in a series of germination a...
