✦ Synopsis

In order to obtain novel mutations in the recently discovered Wilson disease gene, we screened 5 unrelated German individuals for mutations in the 21 exons and their flanking intronic sequences. We detected 9 mutations affecting the Wilson disease gene. Four of those, designated 802-808delTGTAAGT, 2008-2013delTATATG, Cys985Thr, and Ile1148Thr have not yet been reported. One patient had a homozygous mutation whereas the remaining four subjects were compound heterozygous. Therefore these data confirm, that mutations causing Wilson disease are frequently found in affected subjects and they are very heterogenous.

Fabry disease is an X-linked disorder caused by a deficiency of the lysosomal enzyme α αgalactosidase A. The mutations responsible for Fabry disease are diverse and include large rearrangements as well as single base substitutions, and they are dispersed throughout the seven exons of the gene. In th
