Abstract excerpt
Gaucher disease is an autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disorder resulting from deficient glucocerebrosidase activity. There have been nearly 300 mutations described to date. Novel mutations can potentially provide insight into the biochemical basis of the disease. Two novel mutations are described in two Type 1 Gaucher patients with N370S compound heterozygosity; a point mutation that causes an amino acid...
