Investigating viral glycosylation pathways for drug and vaccine development by Brun, J

“…X-ray crystallisation of ER alpha-glucosidase I with the iminosugar NB-DNJ bound in the active site, led to one crystal which was analysed, but the crystallisation process was not reproducible enough to be useful for fragment or drug screening. Further methods such as thermal shift assay screening of 1600 FDA-approved compounds did not reveal any compounds that bound to the soluble enzyme. …”
