Abstract excerpt
Gaucher disease is due to mutations involving the glucocerebrosidase gene. A closely homologous pseudogene is located approximately 16 kD downstream from the functional gene. Sequence analysis of clones from cDNA libraries made from skin fibroblast cultures showed several independent clones with...
