Abstract excerpt
Fucosidosis is a lysosomal storage disorder caused by deficiency of alpha-L-fucosidase. A biochemically and clinically well characterized canine model of fucosidosis exists in a colony of English Springer Spaniels. To facilitate its use as a model for gene therapy and enzyme replacement therapy in lysosomal storage disorders displaying neurological symptoms, isolation of the canine alpha-L-fucosidase cDNA was...
