Abstract

A remarkable enhancer of human glucocerebrosidase enzyme (GCase) was identified among a set of dihydroazulene-tagged iminosugars. An unprecedented 3.9-fold increase in GCase activity was detected on fibroblasts bearing the homozygous L444P mutation, which is frequently associated with neuronopathic Gaucher forms, and which commonly results refractory to chaperone-induced refolding.<br /> (© 2024 The Author(s).
