摘要: Abstract We present the molecular genetic analysis of an infantile-onset Sandhoff disease patient. Genomic DNA amplification, heteroduplex analysis, cloning and sequencing revealed a 4-bp deletion in exon 4 (497 ΔAGTT). The result is frameshift mutation that leads to stop codon 5. This associated with dramatic decrease HEXB mRNA levels.
