Abstract excerpt
The alpha-galactosidase A gene (GALA), which is deficient in males with Anderson-Fabry disease, is shown to be remarkably polymorphic in the 5' untranslated region. GALA contains seven exons. The first exon contains 60 bp of 5' untranslated sequence before the methionine initiation codon. Single strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) screening has shown three polymorphic variants from the published sequence...
