Abstract excerpt
Lysosomal acid lipase (LAL) gene mutations were identified in three patients with cholesteryl ester storage disease (CESD). Direct sequencing of genomic DNA revealed that: patient 1 was a compound heterozygote for a P181L mutation and an A to G3' splice site substitution that causes skipping of exon 7, with a loss of 49 amino acids from LAL (delta 205-253); patient 2 was a compound heterozygote for a G66V...
