Abstract excerpt
Single point mutations in the upstream region of exon 6 of the alpha-galactosidase A gene were found in two Japanese cases of the cardiac form of Fabry disease; 301Arg----Gln (902G----A) in a case that has already been published and 279Gln----Glu (835C----G) in a new case. They both expressed markedly low, but significant, amounts of residual activity in COS-1 cells. In contrast, two unrelated cases with classic...
