Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To carry out prenatal diagnosis for a glycogen storage disease type II (GSD II ) affected family. METHODS: The acid-α -glucosidase (GAA) activity was measured in whole leukocytes and cultured amniocytes with 4-methylumbelliferyl-α -D-glucopyranoside as substrate and with acarbose as inhibitor. The coding regions of GAA gene were amplified by polymerase chain reaction and analyzed by direct DNA...
