Abstract excerpt
We have identified several mutations causing beta-glucuronidase (beta Gl) deficiency in three cases with mucopolysaccaridosis type VII (MPS VII). Enzyme assay of lysates of these lymphocytes or cultured fibroblasts showed little residual activity and that the beta Gl-specific mRNA levels were nor...
