Mutant glucocerebrosidase in Gaucher disease recruits Hsp27 to the Hsp90 chaperone complex for proteasomal degradation.


ABSTRACT: Gaucher disease is caused by mutations of the GBA1 gene, which encodes the lysosomal anchored gluococerebrosidase (GCase). GBA1 mutations commonly result in protein misfolding, abnormal chaperone recognition, and premature degradation, but are less likely to affect catalytic activity. In the present study, we demonstrate that the Hsp90/HOP/Cdc37 complex recruits Hsp27 after recognition of GCase mutants with subsequent targeting of GCase mutant peptides to degradation mechanisms such as VCP and the 26S proteasome. Inhibition of Hsp27 not only increased the quantity of enzyme but also enhanced GCase activity in fibroblasts derived from patients with Gaucher disease. These findings provide insight into a possible therapeutic strategy for protein misfolding diseases by correcting chaperone binding and altering subsequent downstream patterns of protein degradation.
