Abstract excerpt
Fucosidosis is an autosomal recessive, lysosomal storage disease featured by deficient activity of alpha-L-fucosidase. Lymphoid cell lines from a fucosidosis patient (JT) and a healthy individual (control) contained alpha-L-fucosidase mRNA of the same size, 2.3 Kb, as determined by Northern blot analysis. cDNA was prepared from alpha-L-fucosidase mRNA of JT and control cells and each cDNA was amplified by the...
