Figure 1 Putative mechanism linking α-galactosidase A (α-GalA) deficiency and endothelial nitric oxide synthase uncoupling. Following α-GalA deficiency globotriaosylceramide (Gb3) accumulates within caveolae of endothelial cells. As a consequence, endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) is uncoupled, resulting in superoxide (O2–) production; NO is consumed to form peroxynitrite (ONOO–), which leads to the formation of 3-nitrotyrosine (3NT).
