Abstract excerpt
alpha-Mannosidosis is a lysosomal storage disorder that is caused by the deficiency of lysosomal alpha-mannosidase. Feline alpha-mannosidosis is a well-characterized animal model used for studying pathological and therapeutic aspects of lysosomal storage disorders. We here report the purification of feline liver lysosomal alpha-mannosidase and determination of its cDNA sequence. The active enzyme consisted of...
