In recent years, the function of pharmacological chaperones as a “thermodynamic stabilizer” has been attracting attention in combination therapy. The coadministration of a pharmacological chaperone and recombinant human acid α-glucosidase (rhGAA) leads ...

Pharmacological chaperone therapy for Gaucher disease: a patent review [PDF]
Mutations in the gene encoding for acid β-glucosidase (β-glucocerebrosidase, GlcCerase) are seen in Gaucher disease (GD), which give rise to significant protein misfolding effects and result in progressive accumulation of glucosyl ceramide. The main treatment for GD is enzyme replacement therapy (ERT). The iminosugar glycosidase inhibitor N-(n-butyl)-1-

Structural basis of pharmacological chaperoning for human β-galactosidase [PDF]
GM1-gangliosidosis and Morquio B are rare lysosomal storage diseases associated with a neurodegenerative disorder or dwarfism and skeletal abnormalities, respectively. These diseases are caused by deficiencies in the lysosomal enzyme human β-Galactosidase (β-Gal), frequently related to misfolding and subsequent endoplasmic reticulum-associated ...

Mutations detected in the AVPR2 gene (arginine vasopressin type 2 receptor) are known to cause nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI). Several pharmacological chaperones (PCs) target misfolded AVPR2 proteins and rescue them from the quality control system ...

Image_12_Structure-Activity Relationships of Dopamine Transporter Pharmacological Chaperones.TIF
Mutations in the dopamine transporter gene (SLC6A3) have been implicated in many human diseases. Among these is the infantile parkinsonism-dystonia known as Dopamine Transporter Deficiency Syndrome (DTDS).

Crystal structure of the P pilus rod subunit PapA [PDF]
P pili are important adhesive fibres involved in kidney infection by uropathogenic Escherichia coli strains. P pili are assembled by the conserved chaperone-usher pathway, which involves the PapD chaperone and the PapC usher.
