Abstract
Iminosugars are naturally occurring carbohydrate analogues known since 1967. These natural compounds and hundreds of their synthetic derivatives prepared over five decades have been mainly exploited to inhibit the glycosidases, the enzymes catalysing the glycosidic bond cleavage, in order to find new drugs for the treatment of type 2 diabetes and other diseases. However, iminosugars are also inhibitors of glycosyltransferases, the enzymes responsible for the synthesis of oligosaccharides and glycoconjugates. The selective inhibition of specific glycosyltransferases involved in cancer or bacterial infections could lead to innovative therapeutic agents. The synthesis and biological properties of all the iminosugars assayed to date as glycosyltransferase inhibitors are reviewed in the present article.

Abstract
A series of polyhydroxy-pyrrolizidines were designed as constrained analogues of 6-deoxy-homoDMDP, a potent naturally occurring inhibitor of chitin synthase. Enzymatic evaluation revealed that 7-deoxycasuarine was the best inhibitor of the series (IC50 = 820 microM) displaying a noncompetitive inhibition pattern, whereas the other tested compounds had IC50 in the range 4.3-18.9 mM. This is the first report of pyrrolizidine-type iminosugars inhibiting a glycosyltransferase. In addition, the inhibitory potencies towards glycosidases of these synthetic casuarine analogues is also disclosed.

Abstract
Chitin synthase is an enzyme involved in the biosynthesis of chitin, a major structural component of the cell wall of many fungi. Since chitin is absent in vertebrates, chitin synthase has been envisaged as a valuable target in the search for new antifungal agents. In this report, a series of C-2 substituted polyhydroxypyrrolidines were designed and synthesized with the aim of mimicking the glycosylation involved at the transition state of the enzymatic reaction governed by chitin synthase. Some of these models displayed chitin synthase inhibition in the millimolar range. However, no significant antifungal activity was noted on a panel of fungal strains.
