A xylobiose-derived isofagomine lactam glycosidase inhibitor binds as its amide tautomer

The atomic-resolution structure of a xylobiose-derived isofagomine lactam in complex with the xylanase Xyn10A from Streptomyces lividans reveals that the lactam is bound to the enzyme as the amide tautomer, with "reversed" protonation-states for nucleophile and acid-base.
