Characterization of a variant of beta-hexosaminidase: "hexosaminidase Paris".

J C Dreyfus, L Poenaru, M Vibert, N Ravise, J Boue.   

Abstract

A family (father and daughter) was found with a deficiency of hexosaminidase (HEX A and HEX B). Residual HEX A activity was about 30% of usual heterozygotes with very little HEX B activity. Thermostability of HEX A was decreased. No immunological cross reacting material was found for HEX A or B. The mechanism seems to be the production of abnormal, unstable beta subunits, which are still capable of combining with alpha subunits to form functional HEX A.
