Abstract excerpt
Neuronal ceroid lipofuscinoses (NCL) form a distinct group of storage diseases where the normal development of the central nervous system is interrupted and neurons of the neocortex begin to degenerate. Mutations in genes encoding three lysosomal enzymes are the causes for three early-onset forms of NCLs: palmitoyl-protein thioesterase 1 (PPT1) is deficient in human infantile NCL, tripeptidyl peptidase 1 (TTP1)...
