Enzyme Replacement Therapy for Genetic Disorders Associated with Enzyme Deficiency

Abstract excerpt

Mutations in human genes might lead to the loss of functional proteins, causing diseases. Among these genetic disorders, a large class is associated with the deficiency in metabolic enzymes, resulting in both an increase in the concentration of substrates and a loss in the metabolites produced by the catalyzed reactions. The identification of therapeutic actions based on small molecules represents a challenge to...
