Disclosed are new small molecules having a 4-methylpyrrrolo[l,2-a]pyrimidine- 8-carboxamide core structure and the uses thereof for modulating glucocerebrosidase activity. Also disclosed are pharmaceutical compositions comprising the small molecules which may be administered in methods of treating diseases or disorders associated with glucocerebrosidase activity, including neurological diseases and disorders such as Gaucher's disease and Parkinson's disease. The small molecules may contain a fluorophore or may be conjugated to a fluorophore in order to prepare a fluorescent probe for use in high throughput screening methods to identify new modulators of glucocerebrosidase activity via fluorescence polarization.

Disclosed herein are compounds and methods for detecting enzyme activity. In some embodiments, the enzyme is a deacetylase enzyme such as HDAC. The compound of the invention comprises a detectable label, a linker, and an enamide group. The compound can be enzymatically cleaved by the enzyme of interest to produce a nucleophilic fragment that includes the detectable label. Measurement of a signal generated by the detectable label can indicate enzyme activity. The compounds can be used as either in vivo or in vitro enzyme probes.
