Abstract excerpt
Lymphoid cell lines from patients with infantile (type-2) and juvenile (type 3) Gaucher disease have been established by Epstein-Barr virus transformation and investigated and compared with the adult phenotype (type 1) with the view to enzymology. The enzymatic defect in glucosylceramide(GlcCer)-beta-glucosidase activity was more severe in type 2 and 3 than in type 1 cells. The mutant GlcCer-beta-glucosidase from...
