Abstract excerpt
Classic LCAT deficiency (CLD) and fish eye disease (FED) are two clinically distinct syndromes, associated with defects in the lecithin-cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT) gene resulting in total (CLD) or partial (FED) enzyme deficiency. In order to investigate the underlying molecular mechanisms that lead to different phenotypic expression in CLD and FED, LCAT mutants associated with either CLD (LCAT147, LCAT156,...
