Glycogen storage disease type II (GSDII) is a recessively inherited disorder due to the deficiency of acid alpha-glucosidase (GAA) that results in impaired glycogen degradation and its accumulation in the lysosomes. We report here the complete molecular analysis of the GAA gene performed on 40 Itali
Glycogen storage disease type II (GSDII; Pompe's disease) is an autosomal recessive disease caused by lysosomal -glucosidase deficiency. Skeletal muscle weakness is the most conspicuous clinical symptom of patients suffering from GSDII and skeletal muscle also is prominently involved in the knockout
Germline mutations in the BRCAl gene confer susceptibility to hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (Easton et al., 1993; Ford et al., 1994). We report a new mutation in the BRCAl gene in an Austrian hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC) family with four breast cancer cases and one ovarian canc
## Communicated by Elizabeth Neufeld Patients with glycogen storage disease type II (GSDII, Pompe disease) suffer from progressive muscle weakness due to acid a-glucosidase deficiency. The disease is inherited as an autosomal recessive trait with a spectrum of clinical phenotypes. We have investiga
The autosomal recessive glycogen storage disease type I1 is associated with a deficiency of lysosomal a-glucosidase (acid maltase). This paper reports on the mutations in the lysosomal a-glucosidase alleles of an adult patient. A G-1927 to A transition was discovered in exon 14 causing the substitut
