Cornea Verticillata in classical Fabry disease, first from Sri Lanka: a case report
Background Fabry disease is a rare inborn error of metabolism with profound clinical consequences if untreated. It is caused by the deficiency of α galactosidase A enzyme and is the only lysosomal storage disorder with an X linked inheritance ...

Scientific opinion on the safety and efficacy of AGal-Pro (alpha-galactosidase and endo-1,4-beta-glucanase) as a feed additive for chickens reared for laying and minor poultry species for fattening [PDF]
The additive AGal-Pro, also named as Biogalactosidase BL and AlphaGal BL, is a preparation of alpha-galactosidase (galactosidase) produced by a genetically modified strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and of endo-1,4-beta-glucanase (glucanase) produced by

The zinc cluster proteins Upc2 and Ecm22 promote filamentation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae by sterol biosynthesis-dependent and -independent pathways. [PDF]
The transition between a unicellular yeast form to multicellular filaments is crucial for budding yeast foraging and the pathogenesis of many fungal pathogens such as Candida albicans.

Dysregulated DNA methylation in the pathogenesis of Fabry disease
Fabry disease is an X-linked lysosomal storage disorder caused by a deficiency of α-galactosidase A and subsequent accumulation of glycosphingolipids with terminal α-D-galactosyl residues.
