Heterogeneous patterns of biosynthesis, posttranslational processing, and degradation were demonstrated for mutant enzymes in three clinical forms of beta-galactosidase deficiency (beta-galactosidosis): juvenile GM1-gangliosidosis, adult GM1-gangliosidosis, and Morquio B disease. The precursor of th

## Sly GM1-gangliosidosis is a lysosomal storage disease caused by a deficiency of acid b-galactosidase. Three clinical forms are recognized-infantile, juvenile, and adult-based on age of onset and severity of the symptoms. We have performed molecular analysis of a large cohort of GM1 patients (19
Following treatment with N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine, 1,257 mutants of Escherichia coli K]2 were isolated on lactose-tetrazolium medium. Of these mutants, 345 were lactose-negative and lacked appreciable fi-galactosidase activity. About half of these enzyme-deficient mutants had lost the wh
