ACTIVATION OF THE UNFOLDED
PROTEIN RESPONSE IN GAUCHER
DISEASE
Gali Maor and Mia Horowitz
EWGGD, Paris June 27-30, 2012
Gaucher Disease
Due to the defective activity of
lysosomal glucocerebrosidase (GCase)
in Gaucher disease there is:
★Accumulation of substrate
★ERAD of mutant GCase variants
EP Gaucher
ERAD of mutant GCase variants
ERAD has been shown for the following genotypes
(mutations):
N370S/N370S, N370S/L444P, N370S/V394, N370S/recTl,
N370S/V394L, R120W/R120W, L444P/R120W,
G202R/G202R+M362I, L444P/P415R, G202R/G202R,
K157Q/D140H+E326K, R463C/?, R131C/R131C,
L444P/L444P, L444P/R415P, D409H/D409H
Every ER resident or passenger protein undergoes ERQC
and, if needed, ERAD!!!

In UPR there are genes that are upregulated
by the transcription factor CHOP.
Does the GBA gene promoter have a UPR

GBA promoter binds CHOP
Gaucher Disease
Since UPR in general may lead to cell death,
UPR in GD may lead to death of cells as well.
Dopaminergic cells (Parkinson disease)?!
Conclusions
There is UPR in GD patients
There is UPR in one animal models (out of few we have tested)
There is UPR in GD carriers including the 84GG carriers
There is upregulation of the GBA gene in patients in response
to UPR, through CHOP binding
Even without ERAD there is UPR (ER stress) that may lead
to death of cells for example in the case of 84GG carriers
and PD

Parkinson disease
ERAD of mutant GCase variants may lead to
pathogenesis
