Abstract: | Summary Tunicamycin, an antibiotic, and diflubenzuron, an insect growth regulator, were tested to determine their effects on N-acetylglucosaminyl transferase fromS. calcitrans prepupae. Diflubenzuron had no effect, but tunicamycin inhibited the transfer of GlcNAc-1-P from UDP-GlcNAc to dolicholmonophosphate with an I50 of 1.5–4 ng/ml. |
