Lentiviral vectors for gene therapy of Gaucher disease

open access: yes, 2015
Gaucher disease (GD), a recessive disorder characterised by hepatosplenomegaly, pancytopenia and skeletal complications, is caused by deficiency of the enzyme glucocerebrosidase (GC).

LIMP-2 Is a Receptor for Lysosomal Mannose-6-Phosphate-Independent Targeting of β-Glucocerebrosidase

open access: yes, 2007
Summaryβ-glucocerebrosidase, the enzyme defective in Gaucher disease, is targeted to the lysosome independently of the mannose-6-phosphate receptor. Affinity-chromatography experiments revealed that the lysosomal integral membrane protein LIMP-2 is a ...

Ambroxol as a pharmacological chaperone for mutant glucocerebrosidase

open access: yesBlood Cells, Molecules, and Diseases, 2013
Gaucher disease (GD) is characterized by accumulation of glucosylceramide in lysosomes due to mutations in the GBA1 gene encoding the lysosomal hydrolase β-glucocerebrosidase (GCase). The disease has a broad spectrum of phenotypes, which were divided into three different Types; Type 1 GD is not associated with primary neurological disease while Types 2

Clinical Characteristics of 19 Patients With Acid Sphingomyelinase Deficiency: A Case Series From Multiple Centers in Argentina

open access: yesJIMD Reports, Volume 67, Issue 4, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Acid sphingomyelinase deficiency (ASMD), historically known as Niemann‐Pick disease, is a rare and potentially fatal lysosomal storage disease caused by pathogenic variants in the sphingomyelin phosphodiesterase 1 (SMPD1) gene, which encodes acid sphingomyelinase (ASM).

Glucocerebrosidase expression and analysis

open access: yes, 2008
Gaucher disease, an autosomal recessive disorder, is characterized by a heterogeneous set of signs and symptoms caused by a deficiency in the lysosomal enzyme glucocerebrosidase.

Anàlisi molecular de la mucopolisacaridosi I, la mucopolisacaridosi II i la leucodistròfia metacromàtica en els pacients espanyols [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
[cat] La mucopolisacaridosi l, la mucopolisacaridosi II i la leucodistròfia metacromàtica sòn tres malalties Iisosòmiques hereditàries. Totes tres són degudes al defecte funcional d'un enzim Iisosòmic que és incapaç de degradar les macromolècules ...

Glucocerebrosidase mutations: A paradigm for neurodegeneration pathways [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Biallelic (homozygous or compound heterozygous) glucocerebrosidase gene (GBA) mutations cause Gaucher disease, whereas heterozygous mutations are numerically the most important genetic risk factor for Parkinson disease (PD) and are associated with the ...

Beyond Starch: Towards a Scalable Potato Platform for Molecular Farming

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 7, Page 4619-4639, July 2026.
Re‐engineering potato as a biosafe and host‐optimised platform for plant molecular farming by integrating intrinsic biological traits with targeted engineering strategies. ABSTRACT Thirty‐five years after the first recombinant protein was produced in potato and 30 years after clinical trials of edible vaccines from its tubers, the crop is being ...

Mutant glucocerebrosidase stabilization with 1-deoxynojirimycin

open access: yes, 2019
β-Glucocerebrosidase is a lysosomal enzyme responsible for the degradation of glucosylceramide, a glycosphingolipid that accumulates in the lysosomes. Mutations in the β-glucocerebrosidase gene result in reduced activity or misfolding and degradation of ...

Glucocerebrosidase, a lysosomal enzyme that does not undergo oligosaccharide phosphorylation

open access: yes, 1988
Labelling of cultured human skin fibroblasts from either control subjects or patients with mucolipidosis II (I-cell disease) with [32P]phosphate resulted in tight association of phosphate with immunoprecipitated glucocerebrosidase, a membrane-associated ...
