Abstract excerpt

Fabry disease, an inborn error of glycosphingolipid catabolism, results from lesions in the X-linked gene encoding the human lysosomal hydrolase, alpha-galactosidase A (alpha-D-galactoside galactohydrolase; EC 3.2.1.22). To detect alpha-galactosidase A RNA processing or stability defects causing...
