Identification and Clinical Characterization of a Novel Alpha-Galactosidase A Mutation
Fabry disease (FD) is an inborn error of metabolism characterized by deficient/absent activity of lysosomal enzyme alpha-galactosidase A, which results in systemic accumulation of glycosphingolipids and progression to renal failure, heart and ...

Alpha-Galactosidase A p.A143T, a non-Fabry disease-causing variant. [PDF]
Background Fabry disease (FD) is an X-linked multisystemic disorder with a heterogeneous phenotype. Especially atypical or late-onset type 2 phenotypes present a therapeutical dilemma. Methods To determine the clinical impact of the alpha-Galactosidase A (GLA) p.A143T/ c.427G > A variation, we retrospectively analyzed 25 p.A143T patients in ...

Alpha-galactosidase production and use in a hollow-fiber reactor [PDF]
Soybean milk serves as a base for a variety of beverages designed for consumption in developing countries. Soybean flour contains raffinose and stachyose considered to be responsible for flatulence often associated with these products (J.J. Rackis, D.H. Honig, D.J. Sessa, and F.R. Steggerda, 1970).

Prediction of response of mutated alpha-galactosidase A to a pharmacological chaperone [PDF]
To examine the relationship between types and locations of mutations of the enzyme alpha-galactosidase (Gal) A in Fabry disease and the response to the pharmacological chaperone 1-deoxygalactonojirimycin (DGJ).T cells grown from normal individuals or from patients with Fabry disease were tested for response to treatment with DGJ by increased activity ...

Synthesis and characterization of a new fluorogenic substrate for alpha-galactosidase [PDF]
Alpha-galactosidase A hydrolyzes the terminal alpha-galactosyl moieties from glycolipids and glycoproteins in lysosomes. Mutations in alpha-galactosidase cause lysosomal accumulation of the glycosphingolipid, globotriaosylceramide, which leads to Fabry disease.
