Thiamet G selectively inhibits O-GlcNAcase (Ki = 21 nM; Yuzwa et al.), an enzyme that removes O-linked β-N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) from proteins; this inhibition of O-GlcNAcase blocks phosphorylation of the tau protein in vivo (Gong & Iqbal). Pathological hyperphosphorylation of the tau protein can aggregate and induce the formation of neurofibrillary tangles, which is a hallmark of Alzheimer’s disease (Gong & Iqbal; Yuzwa et al.). Thiamet G is blood-brain barrier permeable and can be used to study the function of O-GlcNAc in the vertebrate brain (Yuzwa et al.).
