1.1.99.21 | pharmacology |
miglitol (N-hydroxyethyl-1-deoxynojirimycin), a type of hypoglycemic drug works by competitively inhibiting alpha-glucosidase activity to control postprandial blood glucose, can be used in the treatment of type II diabetes mellitus. 6-(N-hydroxyethyl)-amino-6-deoxy-alpha-L-sorbofuranose, is a key intermediate for the synthesis of miglitol, is produced from N-2-hydroxyethyl glucamine (NHEG) by biotransformation with resting cells of Gluconobacter oxydans. Balanced co-expression of both the mSLDH and the PQQ synthases is effective for the industrial production of 6-(N-hydroxyethyl)-amino-6-deoxy-L-sorbofuranose |

1.1.99.21 | pharmacology |
synergistic improvement of PQQ-dependent D-sorbitol dehydrogenase activity from Gluconobacter oxydans for the biosynthesis of miglitol precursor 6-(N-hydroxyethyl)-amino-6-deoxy-alpha-L-sorbofuranose. Miglitol (N-hydroxyethyl-1-deoxynojirimycin) is a pseudomonosaccharide glucosidase inhibitor in the treatment of non-insulin-dependent mellitus |

1.1.99.21 | synthesis |
the most prominent industrial method of producing L-sorbose is the biotransformation of D-sorbitol to L-sorbose in Gluconobacter species or Acetobacter species. L-sorbose is an important carbohydrate that is predominantly used as a starting material in the biosynthesis of L-ascorbic acid |
