## Abstract Krabbe's disease or globoid cell leukodystrophy is a rare demyelinating disorder of the central and peripheral nervous systems, the diagnosis of which is based on clinical findings and the determination of low to absent functional activiry of athe enzyme β‐galactocerebrosidase. We repor

Mutations in the presenilin-1 (PS1) gene account for the majority of familial early-onset Alzheimer's disease (EOAD) cases. We screened the coding part of the PS1 gene for the presence of mutations in a French family with EOAD, using single strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) analysis. Patients
Fabry disease (FD) is an X-chromosomal disorder caused by mutations in the GLA gene encoding the lysosomal enzyme α-galactosidase A. We performed mutation screening on a cohort of 121 patients including 84 male and 37 female index cases and identified a total of 90 different mutations, 34 of which a
