Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 2017 Aug 1;27(15):3431-3435. doi: 10.1016/j.bmcl.2017.05.086. Epub 2017 May 30.

Abstract

N-Functionalized amino(hydroxymethyl)cyclopentanetriols are potent inhibitors of β-d-galactosidases and, for the first time, could be shown to act as pharmacological chaperones for GM1-gangliosidosis-associated lysosomal acid β-galactosidase thus representing a new structural type of pharmacological chaperones for this lysosomal storage disease.

Keywords: Aminocyclopentane; Carbafuranose; G(M1)-Gangliosidosis; Galactosidase inhibitor; Pharmacological chaperone.
