Abstract excerpt
DNA screening for mutations in the alpha-L-iduronidase (IDUA) gene was performed in a Chinese mucopolysaccharidosis type IH/S patient. The patient had two different mutations: the maternal allele has L346R (t-g transversion in codon 346) and the paternal allele has 388-3c-g (c-g transversion at position -3 of the 3' splice site of intron 2). In transfected COS-7 cells, L346R showed no appreciable IDUA activity...
