Rational Design and Synthesis of Highly Potent β‐Glucocerebrosidase Inhibitors
18 Oct 2005
Abstract excerpt
Highly potent human β-glucocerebrosidase inhibitors have been synthesized that appear to recognize both carbohydrate and hydrophobic binding sites. The most potent inhibitor, 6-nonyl isofagomine (see formula), shows an IC50 value at subnanomolar concentrations. These compounds are potential candidates for the development of small-molecule drugs for the treatment of Gaucher disease.
