To support this, we established the Dutch multicenter, interdisciplinary Archipelago of Ovarian Cancer Research (AOCR) infrastructure, which includes a nationwide biobank. In this study, we share our experiences in establishing the infrastructure, offer guidance for similar initiatives, and evaluate the AOCR patient cohort.

Class I inverting exo-acting α-1,2-mannosidases (CAZY family GH47) display an unusual catalytic itinerary featuring ring-flipped mannosides, → → . Conformationally locked compounds, such as kifunensine, display nanomolar inhibition but large multigene GH47 mannosidase families render specific "isoform-dependent" inhibition impossible. Here we develop a bump-and-hole strategy in which a new mannose-configured 1,6--cyclic sulfamidate inhibits α-d-mannosidases by virtue of its conformation.
