Human β-glucuronidase: structure, function, and application in enzyme replacement therapy.

Abstract excerpt

Lysosomal storage diseases occur due to incomplete metabolic degradation of macromolecules by various hydrolytic enzymes in the lysosome. Despite structural differences, most of the lysosomal enzymes share many common features including a lysosomal targeting motif and phosphotransferase recognition sites. β-Glucuronidase (GUSB) is an important lysosomal enzyme involved in the degradation of glucuronate-containing...
