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

Fabry disease is an X-linked recessive lysosomal storage disorder caused by a deficiency of a-galactosidase A (a-gal; EC 3.2.1.22). In the past, it has been difficult to give an unequivocal diagnosis of carrier status in Fabry disease because of the overlap between normal and heterozygote enzyme lev

We found a novel acceptor splice site mutation in the invariant AG of intron 6 of a-galactosidase A (a-Gal A) gene (IVS6-1G->A) in a patient with Fabry disease by sequencing of genomic DNA. Sequencing of RT-PCR revealed the deletion of first base pair (c909del) of exon 7 in mRNA and a frameshift res
