Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, we have explored to develop non-inhibitory chaperone compounds for human beta-galactosidase deficiency. Screening of the compound library found two candidates, which showed stabilization activity to beta-galactosidase enzyme in vitro without substrate competitive inhibition activity. We also identified a new chaperone candidate, conduramine-F4 based on a lead compound, NOEV. This compound showed a decreased inhibitory activity and increased enzyme enhancing activity against human beta-galactosidase in vitro, indidated as a new chaperone candidate for this disease.
