    摘要: The present invention involves the production of human .alpha.-GalNAc by cloning and expressing the .alpha.-GalNAc coding sequence in eukaryotic host cell expressions systems. The eukaryotic expression systems, and in particular the mammalian host cell expression systems described herein provide for the appropriate co-translational and post-translation modifications required or proper processing, e.g., glycosylation, phosphorylation, etc. and sorting of the expression product so that an active enzyme is produced.The .alpha.-GalNAc produced in accordance with the invention may be used in the treatment of Schindler disease or for the hydrolysis of .alpha.-N-acetylgalactosaminyl moieties in various glycoconjugates.

    摘要: Materials and methods for identifying carriers of genetic determinants of spinal muscular atrophy are disclosed. In particular, polymorphisms in linkage disequilibrium are associated as markers of spinal muscular atrophy alleles detectable by various techniques, including multiplex ligation-dependent probe analysis, sequence analysis, and RFLP detection. The materials and methods of the disclosure are particularly useful in identifying silent (2+0) carriers of spinal muscular atrophy in which two copies of the SMN1 gene are located on a single human chromosome 5 and no copies of the gene are located on the chromosome 5 homolog.

    摘要: The present invention involves the production of large quantities of human .alpha.-Gal A by cloning and expressing the .alpha.-Gal A coding sequence in eukaryotic host cell expression systems. The eukaryotic expression systems, and in particular the mammalian host cell expression system described herein provide for the appropriate cotranslational and posttranslational modifications required for proper processing, e.g., glycosylation, phosphorylation, etc. and sorting of the expression product so that an glycosylation, phosphorylation, etc. and sorting of the expression product so that an active enzyme is produced. In addition, the expression of fusion proteins which simplify purification is described.Using the methods described herein, the recombinant .alpha.-Gal A is secreted by the engineered host cells so that it is recovered from the culture medium in good yield. The .alpha.-Gal A produced in accordance with the invention may be used in the treatment in Fabry Disease; for the hydrolysis of .alpha.-galactosyl residues in glycoconjugates; and/or for the conversion of the blood group B antigen on erythrocytes to the blood group O antigen.
