[Molecular diagnosis and gene therapy for Gaucher disease].

Abstract excerpt

Gaucher disease is the most prevalent lysosomal storage disease. It is caused by deficient activity of a lysosomal enzyme known as glucocerebrosidase, also called glucosylceramidase, resulting from mutations in the gene encoding the enzyme. The numerous mutations in glucocerebrosidase gene from patients were reported and the correlation of phenotype and genotype were studied. However, a given genotype cannot be...
