Abbrevitions: ASA, arylsulfatase A; ASC, arylsulfatase C; cDNA, complementaru DNA; LIM, late infantile mild; LIS, late infantile severe; NVS, neonatal very severe.
The results and SD were calculated from three independent experiments using total cell lysates of MSD fibroblasts and an unaffected fibroblast cell line as a control. Relative activities (% of wt) are given in bold face.
Clinical data were analyzed in patients with the same mutation.
