Sex differences in alpha galactosidase protein processing and its impact on disease severity in Fabry disease
2025-09-17
Abstract excerpt
Fabry disease (FD) is an X-linked disorder due to mutations in the α-galactosidase A (GLA) gene. The condition is characterized by low GLA activity and accumulation of toxic sphingolipids.
