Glucocerebrosidase and parkinsonism: lessons to learn
Journal of Neurology, 2016Both homo- (causing autosomal-recessive Gaucher's disease; GD) and heterozygous mutations in the glucocerebrosidase gene (GBA) are associated with Parkinson's disease (PD), and represent the most robust known genetic susceptibility factors identified in PD.

Ambroxol improves lysosomal biochemistry in glucocerebrosidase mutation-linked Parkinson disease cells [PDF]
Gaucher disease is caused by mutations in the glucocerebrosidase gene, which encodes the lysosomal hydrolase glucosylceramidase. Patients with Gaucher disease and heterozygous glucocerebrosidase mutation carriers are at increased risk of developing ...

Molecular Properties of Lysosomal Glucocerebrosidase
1988In Gaucher disease the membrane-associated lysosomal enzyme glucocerebrosidase is deficient (1). Three clinical phenotypes of Gaucher disease are discriminated: type 1, the adult non-neuronopathic form, type 2, the infantile neuronopathic form and type 3, the juvenile neuronopathic form (1).

Structural Analysis of the Human Glucocerebrosidase Genes
DNA, 1988Two different genomic clones containing the entire coding sequence of human glucocerebrosidase were isolated from a fetal liver library using a cDNA probe previously cloned by us. These clones correspond to two human glucocerebrosidase genes, designated 6-1 and 10-2. Clone 6-1 contains sequences homologous to the cDNA we cloned previously. The promoter

Analysis of the glucocerebrosidase gene in Parkinson's disease
Movement Disorders, 2005AbstractParkinson's disease (PD) is a common progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized clinically by a combination of motor symptoms. Identifying novel PD genetic risk factors is important for understanding its pathogenesis. A recent study suggested that up to 21% of subjects with PD may have mutations in the glucocerebrosidase (GBA) gene ...

A Flow Cytometric Assay for Lysosomal Glucocerebrosidase
Analytical Biochemistry, 1997A flow cytometric assay is described for the determination of glucocerebrosidase (GC) activity using fluorescein di-beta-glucopyranoside (FDGlu). Fluorescent product is formed upon intracellular hydrolysis of FDGlu and is measured in the FL1 channel of a flow cytometer.

Mammalian Glucocerebrosidase: Implications for Gaucher’s Disease
1989More than 20 years ago Brady, Kanfer, and Shapiro and coworkers (13) and Patrick (49) identified the deficiency of glucocerebroside: β-glucosidase (glucocerebrosidase) as the cause of Gaucher’s disease, the first sphingolipidosis for which the biochemical-enzymatic basis was established.
