op imal pH.25 A 1 mM concen a ion and unde op imal pH condi ions e amines 4 and
iamines 5 and en -5 did no inhibi he ollowing enzymes: α-L- ucosidase om bo ine

om o izae, β-D-mannosidase om Helix poma ia, β-N-ace ylgalac osamidase om jack bean,
bo ine epididymis A and B. The inhibi o y ac i i ies owa d o he glycosidases a e epo ed in
Table 1.
We ha e ound ha (2R,3R,4S)-2-aminome hylpy olidine-3,4-diol 2a is a weak inhibi o o
α-mannosidase om jack bean and om almond. This diamine also mode a ely inhibi s β-
