Jafm. Luyten et al., METACHROMATIC LEUKODYSTROPHY - A 12-BP DELETION IN EXON-2 OF THE ARYLSULFATASE-A GENE IN A LATE INFANTILE VARIANT, Human genetics, 96(3), 1995, pp. 357-360
Sequencing of the arylsulfatase A gene in a late infantile metachromat
ic leukodystrophy patient showed the presence of a 12-bp deletion in e
xon 2. This deletion was found in a compound heterozygous state with t
he pre viously described 287 C-->T transition.
