Twenty novel mutations in the alpha-galactosidase A gene causing Fabry disease.
1999
Background
Fabry disease, an X-linked inborn error of glycosphingolipid catabolism, results from the deficient activity of the lysosomal exoglycohydrolase α-galactosidase A (EC 3.2.1.22; α-Gal A). The nature of the molecular lesions in the α-Gal A gene in 30 unrelated families was determined to provide precise heterozygote detection, prenatal diagnosis, and define genotype-phenotype correlations.
