rST6, hST6 and rST3 indicate ratST6Gal-I, human ST6Gal-I and rat ST3Gal-III, respectively. Glc, glucose. -, not inhibited significantly up to 50 μM compounds; NT, not tested. A IC50 values of compounds at 15 mM and 250 μM CMP-Neu5Ac for ST6Gal-I and ST3Gall-III, respectively. B Relative infectivity in the presence of compounds (50 μM) to control infection.
