The 6-O-butanoyl derivative of castanospermine (MDL 28,574: BUCAST), an inhibitor of glycoprotein processing, blocked the growth of herpes simplex virus type-2 with the effect markedly enhanced by exposure of cells to the compound pre- as well as post-infection. The effectiveness of the derivative corresponded to an increased uptake with greatest accumulation after virus infection. Gas chromatography/mass spectrometry identified the predominant component in MDL 28,574 treated cells as castanospermine, an inhibitor of alpha-glucosidase 1. The effects of this compound on the synthesis of viral glycoprotein, gB, was determined with the increased molecular weight of the mannose-rich precursor evidence for the modulation of glycoprotein processing.
