Overview

Acarbose, also known as BAY g 5421, is an α-glucosidase inhibitor that prevents absorption of sucrose and maltose. This compound has been found to delay digestion of complex disaccharides and carbohydrates. Further studies suggest that this compound can stimulate phosphorylase kinase (PhK) by binding to the glucoamylase-like domain new the amino termini and causing an alteration in the structure.
An α-glucosidase inhibitor


Application:

Acarbose, a derivitized maltotriose antidiabetic drug, is a reversible α-glucosidase inhibitor used in medical studies to control the effects of Type II diabetes. Acarbose is often used as a reference to which other α-glucosidase inhibitors are compared.

Note
Wherever possible, you should prepare and use solutions on the same day. However, if you need to make up stock solutions in advance, we recommend that you store the solution as aliquots in tightly sealed vials at -20°C. Generally, these will be useable for up to one month. Before use, and prior to opening the vial we recommend that you allow your product to equilibrate to room temperature for at least 1 hour.

DescriptionThis compound belongs to the class of organic compounds known as aminocyclitol glycosides. These are organic compounds containing an amicocyclitol moiety glycosidically linked to a carbohydrate moiety. There are two major classes of aminoglycosides containing a 2-streptamine core. They are called 4,5- and 4,6-disubstituted 2-deoxystreptamines.
