We found a novel acceptor splice site mutation in the invariant AG of intron 6 of a-galactosidase A (a-Gal A) gene (IVS6-1G->A) in a patient with Fabry disease by sequencing of genomic DNA. Sequencing of RT-PCR revealed the deletion of first base pair (c909del) of exon 7 in mRNA and a frameshift res
Fabry disease, an X-linked inborn error of glycosphingolipid catabolism, results from mutations in the a-galactosidase A gene at Xq22.1. Studies of the mutations in unrelated Fabry families have identified a variety of lesions indicating the molecular genetic heterogeneity underlying the disease. Fo
