Lysosomal Storage Disorders
Molecular and Cellular Mechanisms of Lysosomal Storage Diseases
The lysosome is a specialized part of the cell that functions to degrade metabolic wastes in the cell. Defects in the functioning of the lysosome result in accumulation and subsequent storage of such metabolic wastes.
