The guanidinium ion is positively charged, has a π system, and is poorly solvated in water,[7] which makes it ideal for interactions with aromatic π systems. Consequently, the targeting of protein arginine residues with aromatic structures is emerging as an attractive strategy for protein inhibitor development.Thiodigalactoside 3 has been shown to bind to galectins with about the same affinity as LacNAc,[8] and it was hypothesized that it bound in a mode similar to that of LacNAc,[8a] that is, in subsitesC and D, with a similar conformation and hydrogen-bonding network (Figure1b). This notion has recently been confirmed for galectin-1, for which X-ray structures have been solved both with LacNAc 1 and with thiodigalactoside 3 as ligands.[8b] The galactose residues bind identically in subsite C for the two disaccharides, and in subsiteD, the Gal of thiodigalactoside and GlcNAc of LacNAc show identical patterns of interaction with the protein.
