1,4-b-D-Cellohexaitol1,4-B-D-cellobiohexaitol is a potent inhibitor of cellobiose phosphorylase and has been shown to inhibit the activity of this enzyme in a competitive manner. 1,4-B-D-cellobiohexaitol binds to cellulose and other sugars, which may be related to its toxicity. It is not toxic to animals because they do not have the same sugar binding sites as bacteria. 1,4-B-D-cellobiohexaitol has been shown to be effective against Streptomyces lividans and S. coelicolor. This substance inhibits Streptomyces growth by binding to glucose and galactose present in the cell wall of these organisms.CAS Number61425-46-5Product NameCellohexitolIUPAC Name(2S,3R,4R,5R)-4-[(2S,3R,4R,5S,6R)-5-[(2S,3R,4R,5S,6R)-5-[(2S,3R,4R,5S,6R)-5-[(2S,3R,4R,5S,6R)-3,4-dihydroxy-6-(hydroxymethyl)-5-[(2S,3R,4S,5S,6R)-3,4,5-trihydroxy-6-(hydroxymethyl)oxan-2-yl]oxyoxan-2-yl]oxy-3,4-dihydroxy-6-(hydroxymethyl)oxan-2-yl]oxy-3,4-dihydroxy-6-(hydroxymethyl)oxan-2-yl]oxy-3,4-dihydroxy-6-(hydroxymethyl)oxan-2-yl]oxyhexane-1,2,3,5,6-pentolMolecular FormulaC36H64O31Molecular Weight992.9 g/molInChIInChI=1S/C36H64O31/c37-1-8(44)15(46)27(9(45)2-38)63-33-23(54)18(49)29(11(4-40)59-33)65-35-25(56)20(51)31(13(6-42)61-35)67-36-26(57)21(52)30(14(7-43)62-36)66-34-24(55)19(50)28(12(5-41)60-34)64-32-22(53)17(48)16(47)10(3-39)58-32/h8-57H,1-7H2/t8-,9+,10+,11+,12+,13+,14+,15+,16+,17-,18+,19+,20+,21+,22+,23+,24+,25+,26+,27+,28+,29+,30+,31+,32-,33-,34-,35-,36-/m0/s1InChI KeyVWZLWGQTMCIKEM-VXDFXQCISA-NSMILESC(C1C(C(C(C(O1)OC2C(OC(C(C2O)O)OC3C(OC(C(C3O)O)OC4C(OC(C(C4O)O)OC5C(OC(C(C5O)O)OC(C(CO)O)C(C(CO)O)O)CO)CO)CO)CO)O)O)O)OCanonical SMILESC(C1C(C(C(C(O1)OC2C(OC(C(C2O)O)OC3C(OC(C(C3O)O)OC4C(OC(C(C4O)O)OC5C(OC(C(C5O)O)OC(C(CO)O)C(C(CO)O)O)CO)CO)CO)CO)O)O)O)OIsomeric SMILESC([C@@H]1[C@H]([C@@H]([C@H]([C@@H](O1)O[C@@H]2[C@H](O[C@H]([C@@H]([C@H]2O)O)O[C@@H]3[C@H](O[C@H]([C@@H]([C@H]3O)O)O[C@@H]4[C@H](O[C@H]([C@@H]([C@H]4O)O)O[C@@H]5[C@H](O[C@H]([C@@H]([C@H]5O)O)O[C@H]([C@@H](CO)O)[C@@H]([C@H](CO)O)O)CO)CO)CO)CO)O)O)O)O
