Abstract excerpt
The nature of mutant acid alpha-glucosidase (AAG) in muscle was studied in 6 patients with Pompe disease, consisting of 2 each of the infantile, childhood and adult types. Anti-human liver AAG rabbit antibody prepared in the present study was confirmed to be monospecific by immunodiffusion, immunotitration and immunohistochemical methods. It was found by the immunodiffusion and enzyme immunoassay methods using...
