Abstract excerpt
A late infantile metachromatic leukodystrophy patient was found to be heterozygous for the arylsulfatase A (ARSA) pseudodeficiency (pd) polyadenylation site variant ((*)96A>G) in the absence of the commonly associated N-glycosylation site variant (N350S). ARSA alleles were sequenced and the genotype completely defined. Six sequence variations were identified, among which two resulted as severe disease-causing...
