Argininemia is a rare autossomal recessive disorder caused by deficiency in the cytosolic liver-type arginase enzyme (L-arginine urea-hydrolase; E.C. 3.5.3.1). In order to investigate the molecular basis for argininemia in four unrelated Portuguese patients (two from northern Portugal and two from M

The autosomal recessive disorder Glycogen Storage Disease Type II (GSDII) is caused by a deficiency in the lysosomal enzyme acid -glucosidase. We have optimised a procedure to use fluorescent DNA sequencing technology to screen for mutations within the -glucosidase gene from UK patients with GSDII.
Over fifty missense mutations in the presenilin-1 (PSEN1) gene have been reported in families with presenile familial Alzheimer's disease (FAD). We describe a novel missense mutation (G209R) within the predicted fourth transmembrane domain of the PSEN1 in a Japanese family with presenile FAD. The af
We identified a novel mutation (867delA) in the glucose-6-phosphatase gene of two siblings with glycogen storage disease type Ia. Although both siblings share the same mutations, their phenotype regarding adult height and hepatomegaly differs. In glycogen storage disease type Ia, substantial heterog
