Computer Aided Design of potential inhibitors for Gaucher disease

Acid β-glucosidase (GlcCerase) is a lysosomal enzyme, which is important in biodegradation of blood cells in human body. Mutation of GlcCerase will lead to Gaucher disease; the most common lysosomal storage disease. The current available treatments for Gaucher disease are enzyme replacement therapy...
