A partial deletion involving exon 3 associated with a single base change (A to C) was found in the alpha-galactosidase A gene of a hemizygous male Fabry patient and his mother, a heterozygous proband. This 402-bp deletion was flanked by 6-bp direct repeat sequences, and the intervening portion was found to have unique complementary sequences. These specific structures may have promoted "slipped mispairing" in this family.
在一名半合子男性法布里病患者及其母亲(一名杂合子先证者)的α-半乳糖苷酶A基因中,发现了一个涉及外显子3的部分缺失,该缺失与单个碱基变化(A变为C)相关。这个402碱基对的缺失两侧是6碱基对的直接重复序列,并且发现中间部分具有独特的互补序列。这些特定结构可能在这个家族中促进了“滑动错配”。
