Acid hydrolases are synthesized as precursors that undergo several posttranslational modifications including proteolytic processing to a smaller mature enzyme. The amount of proteolytic processing varies for different acid hydrolases, and many details of the intracellular pathways are not known. The
The authors studied the phenotypic distribution of alpha-L-fucosidase in a random sample of the population of the area of Rennes (France). The frequencies of Fu1 (0.64) and Fu2 (0.36) genes are significantly different from the frequencies observed in New York whites and blacks.
