Glycohydrolases in the central nervous system: the role of GBA2 in the neuronal differentiation [PDF]

open access: diamondSpringerPlus, 2015
Mammalian neurodevelopment is characterized by qualitative and quantitative changes in plasma membrane glycosphingolipids due to a fine regulation of their metabolic pathways. While the biosynthetic pathway is largely studied scant is the information available on the catabolic one.

Mfsd14a disruption causes globozoospermia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The Mfsd14a gene, previously called Hiat1, encodes a transmembrane protein of unknown function with homology to the solute carrier protein family. To study the function of the MFSD14A protein, mutant mice (Mus musculus, strain 129S6Sv/Ev) were generated ...

Diagnosis, investigation and management of hereditary spastic paraplegias in the era of next-generation sequencing. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The hereditary spastic paraplegias (HSPs) are a group of genetic conditions in which spastic paralysis of the legs is the principal clinical feature. This is caused by a relatively selective distal axonal degeneration involving the longest axons of the ...

Synthesis and Application of Bioactive N‐Functionalized Aziridines

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, Volume 137, Issue 44, October 27, 2025.
This review discusses modern synthetic methods for the preparation of aziridine‐containing small molecules, including biocatalytic, electrocatalytic, and photocatalytic strategies. We highlight the compatibility of various synthetic methods with control of the exocyclic N‐substituent.

Glucosylated cholesterol in mammalian cells and tissues: formation and degradation by multiple cellular β-glucosidases[S]

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2016
The membrane lipid glucosylceramide (GlcCer) is continuously formed and degraded. Cells express two GlcCer-degrading β-glucosidases, glucocerebrosidase (GBA) and GBA2, located in and outside the lysosome, respectively.

Iminosugar-based inhibitors of glucosylceramide synthase increase brain glycosphingolipids and survival in a mouse model of Sandhoff disease. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
The neuropathic glycosphingolipidoses are a subgroup of lysosomal storage disorders for which there are no effective therapies. A potential approach is substrate reduction therapy using inhibitors of glucosylceramide synthase (GCS) to decrease the ...

Human glucocerebrosidase mediates formation of xylosyl-cholesterol by β-xylosidase and transxylosidase reactions

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2021
: Deficiency of glucocerebrosidase (GBA), a lysosomal β-glucosidase, causes Gaucher disease. The enzyme hydrolyzes β-glucosidic substrates and transglucosylates cholesterol to cholesterol-β-glucoside.

Unifying biology of neurodegeneration in lysosomal storage diseases. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Inherit Metab Dis
Abstract There are currently at least 70 characterised lysosomal storage diseases (LSD) resultant from inherited single‐gene defects. Of these, at least 30 present with central nervous system (CNS) neurodegeneration and overlapping aetiology. Substrate accumulation and dysfunctional neuronal lysosomes are common denominator, but how variants in 30 ...

Spectral analysis and slow spreading dynamics on complex networks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The susceptible-infected-susceptible (SIS) model is one of the simplest memoryless systems for describing information or epidemic spreading phenomena with competing creation and spontaneous annihilation reactions.
