Lentiviral vectors for gene therapy of Gaucher disease
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
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
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

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 mutations: A paradigm for neurodegeneration pathways [PDF]
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
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
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
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 ...
