Metachromatic leukodystrophy (MLD), a lysosomal storage disease caused by the deficiency of arylsulfatase A (ASA), is inherited as an autosomal recessive trait, and its frequency is estimated to be 1 in 40,000 live births. Genomic DNA from 21 MLD patients (14 late-infantile and 7 juvenile cases) was
