* Avalglucosidase alfa is a human acid α-glucosidase produced in Chinese hamster ovary cells (CHO) by recombinant DNA technology, which is subsequently conjugated with approximately 7 hexamannose structures (each containing two terminal mannose-6-phosphate (M6P) moieties) to oxidised sialic acid residues on the molecule, thereby increasing bis-M6P levels.

Active Ingredient Description
Avalglucosidase alfa

Avalglucosidase alfa is a recombinant human acid α-glucosidase (rhGAA) that provides an exogenous source of GAA. Binding to M6P receptors on the cell surface has been shown to occur via carbohydrate groups on the GAA molecule, after which it is internalised and transported into lysosomes, where it undergoes proteolytic cleavage that results in increased enzymatic activity to degrade glycogen.
