## Background: Fabry disease results from a genetic deficiency of alpha-galactosidase a (gla) activity. phenotype-genotype correlations in this condition have not as yet been fully elucidated. ## Objective: To report a case of a male patient with classical fabry disease and his mother, a heterozy
Fabry disease is an X-linked inborn error of sphingolipid catabolism resulting from deficient enzyme activity of a-galactosidase A. The molecular defects of human a-galactosidase A gene causing Fabry disease have been characterized, including gene rearrangement and point mutations, which show the ge
